Today and every day, we honour the brave veterans who served our country with courage, dedication and selflessness.
Let’s wear a poppy, attend a local ceremony and take a moment to reflect on the courage and sacrifice of our veterans and members of the Canadian Armed Forces.

To deliver our ambitious $236 billion plan to build, Ontario will need 400,000 more skilled trade workers over the next decade.
That’s why we’re creating more apprenticeship opportunities and hands-on training for young people to build lifelong careers in the trades.
A strong construction industry is essential to supporting our growing communities.🏗️
Great to meet with @PCACanada & learn more about its 140 member contractors, who employ over 40,000 skilled workers across Canada, & the important role they play in building a thriving province.
To compete globally in the face of U.S. tariffs, Ontario is cutting red tape to build and expand mines faster.
That's why we cut mine permitting review timelines by 50% through the 'One Project, One Process'. @Sflecce
