• 0:03
  Speaker 1: a grip on the middle class checkbook. Essential medical tech
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: remains unfunded by ohip. The Premier of Ontario wants to
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: buy a luxury plane. No, this isn't a twenty twenty

  Speaker 1: six fever dream under doug Ford. This is nineteen eighty
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: one under then Premier Bill Davis. The more things change,
