Party leaders were absent from the chamber but the morning debate was as spicy as ever — featuring a moment in which PAUL CALANDRA name-checked every PC caucus member with an immigrant connection in response to Liberal MITZIE HUNTER’s question about ranked balloting, which she argues promotes diversity.

THE HIGHLIGHTS: Saving 1,800 auto jobs at Stellantis — Make PSW pay raises permanent — Yes to Calandra’s $26K pay bump, No to raising nurses’ wages — Period hygiene products for First Nation schools — Scrapping Highway 413 to save precious farmland — Make rent affordable — Ranked ballots for diversity vs. All the immigrants in PC caucus — Green-light more temp road test centres to clear backlog — Keeping unvaccinated health workers on the job — Needs-based autism services now — Mandate Covid shots for health and education workers.
