Mike Harris is the very LAST person I would EVER put on a list of appointees to the Order of Ontario.

He laid the groundwork for privatizing Long-Term Care. At the helm of Chartwell this year oversaw record profits -- literally profiteering off a pandemic while our elders died.
During the Ipperwash crisis, Harris was quoted saying: 'I want the fucking Indians out of the park'.

In closing arguments at the inquiry, a lawyer representing Dudley George's family claimed Harris was partially responsible for his death after sharing this opinion with the OPP.
Walkerton. Education cuts. Privatizing & selling off anything and everything that wasn't nailed down.

We have never recovered from the damage this man did to our province.
My earliest memories of political activism were protesting in front of this man's office after his devastating attacks on my education.

I'll be damned if I sit by quietly while he's given the highest honour of this province.
