    Remember the gas plant scandal?

    It seems so quaint now in the face of Doug Ford’s open corruption.

    Vote better, Ontario.

        You know, you say that, but the entire Toronto area voted against him. The entire region was solid red, yet somehow this clown got voted in, which was weirdly funny when I saw that the area around Thunder Bay voted against him as well. The part of Ontario I’m worried about is Ottawa, and how the entire city outside of the downtown core voted for him.

        Honestly, when I saw the vote map after the last election, the results were scary as someone who was seriously against Ford. Don’t people keep seeing that most of his efforts keep concentrating in and around Toronto and flat out ignore all the people who voted for him? It’s like only Toronto and Norther Ontario’s noticed this about him.

            Huh. I must have looked at an early map so Toronto looked different. It’s pretty sad to see so much blue on the final map after all the shit Ford did to us on his previous term.

            My bad.

          Hate and right wing rhetoric is what usually drives rural Ontario to vote conservative … all you have to do to get people in small town Ontario to vote conservative is give them a boogie man, tell them all that the other party is corrupt, that they support cities and conservatives are for the little guy and call everyone ‘folks’ … then just have your millionaire supporters run round the clock advertising everywhere to drive home the message and voila, you’ve got government for four years … screw everyone for three years, then pay attention for a year and do it all over again.

        I vote every time. I didn’t vote for Steve Clark.

        Everyone needs to vote next time.
