For Immediate Release - July 10, 2025
Ontario Greens Leader Mike Schreiner released the following statement in response to the massive layoffs and program cuts hitting Ontario’s colleges:
“Doug Ford is starving Ontario’s public colleges and robbing people of opportunity.
This isn’t just about today’s job losses, which hurt families and local economies. It’s also about cutting off access to training in healthcare, the trades, green technology, and more.
These are pathways to good jobs, a cleaner economy, and stronger communities. And under Ford’s watch, they’re slipping away.
The Premier needs to make a real commitment to rebuild a post-secondary system that works for students, for workers, and for the future of Ontario.”
