Congratulation to @LDoerkson, British Columbia’s next premier, and the BC Conservative Party on their historic election victory. I’m looking forward to working together as we unlock our natural resources, continue to break down internal trade barriers and build a more competitive and united Canada from coast to coast to coast. I also want to thank David Eby for his years of dedicated public service and wish him and his family all the best. Premier Eby has been an important part of Team Canada as we stood up to tariffs and worked together to protect Canadian sovereignty.

Today, MP Menegakis and I joined the Richmond Hill Legion to pay tribute to the veterans who have been laid to rest at Elgin Mills Cemetery, placing poppies at their tombstones to honour their memory and their service. Thank you to Ross and everyone at the Richmond Hill Legion for everything you do to support veterans, and for ensuring that No Stone is Left Alone. #LestWeForget #AuroraOakRidgesRichmondHill

Our government will always stand up for Ontario’s small businesses. By cutting the small business tax by $1.1 billion, we’re delivering up to $5,000 in savings to local businesses that power #AuroraOakRidgesRichmondHill's economy. This week and every week, remember to #ShopLocal!

My thoughts are with everybody who has been affected by the terrible incident that took place at CFB Wainwright in Alberta last night, including members of our armed forces and the heroic first responders on the scene. As Canadians, let’s come together to support our brave men and women in uniform, who put their lives on the line to protect our freedoms and our country. Ontario stands ready to help the recovery efforts however we can.
