Possible content gaps
editI don't see anything about the political scandals surrounding ServiceOntario and Ontario Science Centre/Ontario Place. I think content could easily be written to cover this but I'm not sure where it would fit best. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 20:31, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- I know it's late, but I found out that there is another article about the premiership of Doug Ford. Maybe it can added there. 137a (talk • edits) 04:20, 3 November 2024 (UTC)

Nothing about his decision on bike lanes?
editThere are many RS available about this decision to restrict bike lanes. Which section should this placed in? [1][2][3] Same thing with the Science Centre stuff. 137a (talk • edits) 13:49, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
- That subject is better suited for Premiership of Doug Ford. PKT(alk) 17:41, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
U.S. 25 % Tariffs on Canadian Goods
editWe have numerous large companies in Canada that are owned and operated by U.S. Companies. Maybe we should start buying from only Canadian Owned Companies, that would definitely have an effect on the bottom line. To name a few: Home Depot, Costco, McDonalds. I guess the US doesn’t understand how much US investments are in Canada and how it will effect the bottom line and unemployment. 67.69.76.161 (talk) 18:44, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
