(QUEEN'S PARK) – MPP Randy Hillier yesterday refused to support the further extension of the State of Emergency that was started in late March in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In refusing to give his unanimous consent, the government was compelled to introduce a motion and have a debate. During the debate he decided to give a voice to his constituents and the many unseen tragedies which have been forgotten during this crisis.
"I was shocked at the ease at which my colleagues agreed to abdicate their responsibilities to the autocratic rule of Premier Ford," says Hillier. "By extending the State of Emergency, MPP's decided to ignore the concerns of their constituents."
