But the Premier has yet to say sorry for what some are calling misogynist and sexist comments hurled at Horwath.

During a heated exchange between the pair over the reopening of the province's economy, Doug Ford told the NDP leader "It's like listening to nails on a chalkboard listening to you."

In a statement the premier condemned any and all forms of misogyny and sexism but stopped short of saying sorry.

Horwath has accused the Ford government of reopening the economy too quickly and jeopardizing the lives of residents.
