"SNIP.....

TORONTO – After un-cancelling the $15 minimum wage increase, Premier Doug Ford is promising Ontarians that, if re-elected, he will spend the entirety of his second term fighting tooth and nail to undo the damage caused by his first term.

“Folks, the current government has made a real mess of things,” said Ford. “And that’s why if you re-elect the current government, I promise to spend every day working to reverse everything they have done.”

“Change is possible! As long as you don’t change the government,” he added.

Ford has already unveiled a lengthy campaign platform, which primarily consists of writing in words like ‘cancel’ or ‘not’ in front of a list of things he has done since taking office in 2018.

Trying to buy votes.

We were already on a good path when he decided to cancel the minimum wage increase to $15 when he first conned his way into office.

All he ever did was harm the most vulnerable of us.

parade. He had plans to be PM and realized his dream was dying. So he has stuck to Trudeau like glue on Covid. Now he realizes the suburbs were like "We're having none of Otoole speaking out of both sides of his mouth and taking us down the Republican road." Ford has no choice. The conservatives in Nova Scotia ran on "we're not like those conservatives elsewhere in canada" at every stump and won.
