It’s my pleasure to recognize our page captain today, Sally Tabachnick, from my riding of Davenport. Sally’s parents, Scott and Nadia, and her brother Alfie, who was also a page here, are with us in the members’ gallery. I look forward to meeting with them all later today. Congratulations, Sally.

To the Premier: How many more ERs like Carleton Place will have to close this summer because of his government’s inaction?

Their plan is not working, and ordinary Ontarians are worried about what this means for them. Nearly 400,000 Ontarians took action in the Ontario Health Coalition’s citizen referendum. Members opposite dismissed it as a stunt, but this past weekend, across this province, tens of thousands of Ontarians everywhere took action with the Ontario Federation of Labour to tell this government that enough is enough.

Speaker, if the Premier is truly for the people, will he actually listen to the people?

I have a large number of people to welcome here today into the Legislature. I have my entire campaign team here with me today. I want to introduce to the chamber Stephanie Nakitsas, Mosheh Herdsman, Hannia Cheng, Kowrika Suntharalingam, Shirven Rezvany, Amy Lester, Angela Bae, Laura Nguyen, Bruno Marchese, Lorei De Los Reyes, Ashley Da Silva, Lourdes David, Greg Denton, and my partner Jordan Berger. Thank you all so much for all you’ve done—oh, and one last person, my campaign director, who just became a new Canadian citizen this morning, Dave Clark.
