Ford Promises Ice Cream Party For All Health Care Workers

Queen’s Park - With Ontario’s health care system on the brink of collapse, there’s seemingly a light at the end of the tunnel after Premier Doug Ford has announced his plan to throw a province-wide ice cream party for all nurses at the end of the pandemic.

“Folks, it’s been a long and challenging two years, especially for our front line workers. But trust me when I say the end is in sight,” announced the premier, “Which is why as a sign of appreciation for all your hard work I’m going to throw a massive ice cream party for all of you as soon as this Omicron wave has passed.”

Despite calls for increased funding and compensation for health care workers since the premier’s election in 2018, Ford assured the province ice cream was just as good.

“This isn’t going to be just any ice cream. I’ve already reached out to the good people at Kawartha Dairy and they agreed to cater this party,” the Premier continued, “From Moosetracks to Butterscotch ripple, there will be all kinds of flavours for any surviving nurses to enjoy.

Ford clarified the party was conditional on his re-election later this year.
