Less pleading, more leading from the Premier

November 18, 2020

QUEEN’S PARK — Green Party of Ontario Leader, Mike Schreiner, released the following statement:

“We need the Premier to do less pleading and more leading in order to get a handle on the virus.

The Premier’s inaction landed us in this spiralling second wave, but now we need decisive action from him to turn things around.

I support aggressive public health action in red-zone municipalities and strong measures in emerging hotspots to prevent what happened in Toronto and Peel.

Small businesses know that saving lives must be the priority because good health is good for business.

What they need from Doug Ford is clear messaging, sufficient time to plan for a closure, and direct financial aid to get through these hard times.”
