DougFord and DrFullertonMPP A body of politicians holding themselves accountable to nobody ought not to be trusted by anyone! Here are two CP patriots and criminals that have been rewarded. Go get our money back and stop coming for low-income families. Ottawa Students

I can't believe people voted for this porky pig! One week he's DonaldTrump and the other he's a cartoon character and let's not forget his hoodini mannerisms at meetings. DougFord articulation can be compared to a student in high school! Does he even Read Books? Toronto

to widely advertize and highlight 10% reduction in tuition and bury their next and ultimate goal of cancelling Wynne's free tuition legislation. So heartbreaking for the poor families who had, for a moment, an opportunity to raise their children out of poverty through education.

While i always felt that the free tuition legislation should not have been so inclusive; that it woud have been smarter to provide tuition assistance to poor families who otherwise could not afford post-secondary education for their children; it is so obviously a ploy to widely

There is no doubt in my mind that Premier Fords next move (cancelling free tuition for our young Ontarians)will receive little/nomedia coverage; this trickery and sneaky strategizing is corrupt and an insult to voter intelligence. Shame!

cont'd...no doubt precede the cancellation of the previous govt's legislation providing free tuition to young Ontarians. Your implying that such legislation never existed is misleading und false. My 24 yr old daughter has been the recipient of this free tuition for a full year

this announcement of reduced tuition is a huge blow to the already over-stretched budgets of ontario's Colleges and Universities, and a blatant smoke and mirrors political strategy to precede the REAL agenda of our corporate-friendly bedfellow of a premier - the next move will no

Smh

Ford will only do things that benefit him.

When will Ford stop cutting essential services! 🖕DoFo

hahaha bias against Ford much? Why include the oppositions pure speculation in the headline? Ford could cure cancer and the headline would be 'Ford cures Cancer, Critics worry nurses may face cut hours as result..'

Always negative. A 25% increase in grants in one year? Of course any decent government would look at this and make the necessary changes to control this expenditure. That leaves the NDP and Liberals out. Good Gawd the Ford government lowers tuition, this is worse than a buck a beer
