Re Farm with large virus outbreak has history of complaints, June 23

I find it an outrage that the plight of migrant farm workers is dismissed out of hand by the Ford government.

This latest news just adds to the list of “disposable”citizens in the province of Ontario. Longterm-care home residents have been collateral damage of the COVID-19 outbreak. To ignore and neglect the most vulnerable and disadvanta­ged in this province is inexcusabl­e, particular­ly those who cannot advocate for themselves.
