This is wild. What is going on in the Doug Ford government?

@TDotResident They are not accountable to anyone. It's a culture that has been modeled by the premier and is now mirrored by ministers and staffers, alike. The arrogance is astounding. I hope this was career-ending for the staffer and Dunlop. As if they need more Ls right now. #onpoli

Every ministry is a disaster

She went off script. Ford‘s MPP’s must follow the script. That’s why they’re not allowed to attend candidate debates.

The government is crashing out. Doug can't keep up with his scandals. Staffers are panicking. And to think Doug ended the legislative session in hopes the public would forget his gravy plane debacle.

@TDotResident @fordnation government is a sham and a disgrace to all Ontarians. Total and utter fiscal and organizational incompetence while they blow through taxpayer $ on lavish hotels, meals, planes, spas, etc. And not a single one of them will take responsibility, resign now Ford!

LOL did the staffer know the host would be able to hear her?? whether she did or not this is crazy

She’s not up to the job. This government only acted when the smoke started to impact folks in Toronto. It’s shameful how they react to these events.

@fordnation government isn't just incompetent . We've moved onto criminal. Natural Resources Ministry Leadership 🤨🤔 Party Donors are not elected.

@erinislearning So who has the job of policing what Conservative MPP’s say in interviews? How much does that job cost the taxpayers of Ontario. @fordnation is there a single transparent thing your government does for this province.

Min Dunlop is another Cons MPP with ZERO post-secondary education. Her only experience is as an "administrator" translation - receptionist The Min of Preparedness is wholly UNQUALIFIED to be in charge of ANYTHING. I bet her asst has a degree and recognized how bad Jill was doing

@JonSThompson @JillDunlop1 Minister of Emergency Unpreparedness and Unresponsiveness 🙄

Ask Korey Teneycke if this was his idea to have a 'handler' keep an eye on the MPP's and cut off questions/debates. This looks more & more like a compromised party running away from being caught with their hands in the cookie jar.

AIH isn’t live. They made the choice to air this interview including the minder’s interruption, and good for them for doing so.

imploding. The MPP in my area doesn't even reply to me anymore.

@TDotResident You have a responsibility to Ontarian’s @JillDunlop1, and communication is part of that

Brought to you by the guy who changed the FOI laws

Nothing good. It feels lately like it's falling apart at the seams.

The story of too many governments, of all stripes and ministries. Strict message control always, with so much Staff resources going into comms in order to do so. But when the public never has them facing any electoral consequences or accountability for it, why wouldn't they?

@TDotResident Why so worried?

The media is only allowed to amplify purposely misleading talking points. No questions are allowed to be answered because the media will usually amplify purposely misleading talking points unchallenged so if they run out of talking points, they have to run away.

Well now we know the conservatives comms staff are just as dumb and incompetent as their ministers.

This staffer and entire govt need to get gone yesterday

Such a pathetic and cowardly performance, and also 100% on-brand for this worthless governmnet. @JillDunlop1 was at a vintage car show while people fled for their lives

Hard for a CONSERVATIVE to think on their feet with real solutions....... this is why they desperately need AI. #NeverVoteConservative

Looks like an inquiry will be necessary, otherwise, how will Ontarians get answers from these sheltered and non-transparent MPPs?

#mediarelations

Fah Q Fat Ford

Someone should just say “fuck it” and leak everything to all the major outlets.

@TaraSlone Another example of the inept individuals working within an inept government. They regularly require handlers to cover up their gross ineptness

I’m sure @warren_weeks has this clip saved in the “don’t do this” folder for his courses. This is sooooo bad

@TaraSlone Not surprisingly the Ford government has a play book don’t answer any tough questions and pull a Trump move and walk out

Yikes 😬😳

Total incompetence and corruption

Overpaid
