Contested deletion
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because as former chair of Postmedia as well as his other positions, he is notable. Nomination for deletion should be through Articles for deletion, not speedy. Nixon Now (talk) 09:16, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree, and have declined the speedy. Sam Sailor 09:49, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

Infobox removal
Standard formatting for an "Infobox person" running, however if the subject should actually be using the "Infobox politician" should we be using that instead? I believe the fields employer and home_town are not standard and why the edits were made by the subject's social media advisor "Laryssa WH" who is actually Laryssa Waler, or @LWaler on Twitter.

The Infobox should only have one entry in the current and immediate past item listed. I notice the box was removed, what is the justification for removing it? Don't all politicians have this as part of a standard Wikipedia page? Or is it because we were using the wrong box? Perhaps if someone from the actual Wikipedia community, and not a campaign member was creating the page it would be encyclopediac.

Display of picture
Since the subject is simply a candidate for one party or another, for an election not yet called the picture should not appear on the subject page. Leaving the picture would make the subject a campaign piece, and Wikipedia is not an advertising outlet for this purpose.

 * A picture can be used if there is a free one available but not if there are copyright issues. Nixon Now (talk) 22:44, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

MPP Start Date
He has yet to be sworn in. No start date yet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.79.226.254 (talk) 17:42, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
 * A newly-elected MPP's start date is denoted as the date of the election. The actual formal swearing-in dates of new MPPs are neither covered by the media as news in its own right, nor provided on the website of the Legislative Assembly itself — which makes that date completely unsourceable and thus impossible for us to use. So the matter of whether the person has been formally sworn in or not is an irrelevant technicality — we use the date of the election itself, because there's no other date we can source in order to use.

Silencing opposition and globalist agenda
Rod Phillips was extremely close to disgraced Ontario PC Party leader Patrick Brown, who stepped down after sexual harassment allegations surfaced in March 2018, and even closer to Brown's former campaign co-chair, and Muslim Brotherhood lawyer Walied Soliman. Phillips and his cohorts are said to have used and abused public resources, harassed and intimidated grassroots members in the years and months leading up to the 2018 Ontario PC leadership race and Ontario general election. Phillips sought to quash public debate and limit scrutiny in outing both Patrick Brown's hidden agenda, personal and career fumbles, lavish spending and time away from Parliament Hill as MP for Barrie, and his questionable support for political Islam and candidates in crooked leadership races. Not to mention Phillips own parachute status to his newly minted riding of Ajax, having long resided in Toronto's tony Rosedale neighbourhood.

Phillips grew up in Newmarket, was known to have lived in Rosedale, and only recently moved to his parachute riding, and Town of Ajax after resigning his position as chairman of Postmedia to pursue his political career and oddly acclaimed as the Ontario PC's candidate. The choice to move to Ajax was only announced during the election campaign by CTV, in a strategy to ensure his win, while the people were quickly growing suspicious of his motives for parachuting in the 11th hour. This strategy being used is much how CTV is suddenly covering Patrick Brown's campaign for Mayor of Brampton, while ignoring his disgraced and blemished career as a career politician.

Phillips is cut from the same Rothschild globalist cloth as fellow cohort Caroline Mulroney, who are both close to Postmedia CFO Paul Godfrey, who's media resources propelled them to where they are today. Both Mulroney and Phillips were only put into cabinet by Premier Doug Ford to keep a close watch on them, and to quash any uprising from the back benches. Besides Phillips responsibility in cancelling the rubber stamped Patrick Brown policy of a carbon tax as a way to keep Phillips busy, largely relegated to silence as Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks. Ontario's provincial parks are unlikely to cause any cabinet scandals and embarrassment to this government, or fumbles while the real work is done by members in whom Ford actually trusts to implement a fiscal conservative agenda for the people.
