Ford is deliberately destroying OHIP. He wants Ontario healthcare to become an American style nightmare. He's already begun and the complaints of malpractice are stacking up.
He should focus on providing new initiatives, not taking away or cancelling existing services and pensions. Where can I find a family doctor? Why are there more weed dispensaries than Tim Hortons in my shift working city. Why can I find magic mushrooms for sale in my neighborhood but no transportation? Why do people hold cardboard signs in front of the local Walmart or stand outside my car while I am parallel parking downtown waiting for cash? Why is he demanding that lotto tickets be sold at LCBO? Is he just adding gambling to the mix? We can already buy wine and beer just about everywhere. Lets have Costco and grocery stores focus on food - we don't need to buy our vodka at Walmart.

It is wrong.
Why is the LCBO even public? There's no reason they should be operating as a government monopoly. Many of us would love to see the alcohol industry run similarly to the marijuana industry.

Booze increases the likelihood of robbery. To stay competitive the small business owner will be pressured to carry booze. This means the small business owner has the added expense and responsibility of security (e.g. bars on windows, surveillance cameras, alarm system, an in-store guard). In many neighborhoods, store owners will be forced to own a gun. You want to turn clerks into cops? You want to do all this damage rather than solve a labor dispute?

Seriously?! Ontario has so many crisis situations. Every small town and city has a tent encampment. T.F.W. are lowering wages, and taking entry level jobs from kids that are born here, and can't afford to live. Infrastructure failures due to massive population increases. Inflation, cost of living, small business going under, health care services deteriorating. You go on about how your premier cant flip a burger? Remember Ontario. You voted this guy in because you were voting the liberals out. Then the next time it was time to vote, he took all of his opponents away. How T.F. can Ontarians sleep at night. Knowing that they let this guy into politics. Grow T.F. up.
