YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Ontario's legislature began a 21-week break on Tuesday and won't return until Oct. 27. The Ford government says the extended recess is meant to avoid interfering with municipal elections. Opposition leaders disagree, arguing that time for debating and passing legislation has shrunk under Premier Doug Ford and that the lengthy adjournment is a way to avoid accountability.
