Doug ford may not have done all the damage, but he certainly isn’t the guy that is going to repair the damage with new ideas, social services, and changing the status quo. Doug is more likely to make policies that benefit the rich and maintain the status quo and make people think everything is fine and normal while doing no real progress.
Canada as a whole needs to step back, look at the damages we’ve done to our cities, social services, and industries and we need to come up with ways to mend. We need to rebuild our bulldozed cities and reduce horrendously expensive car dependancy. We need sociial services to help lift people up, some of which have been generationally pushed down, we need to invest in Canada’s economy and industry to become more resilent and self sufficient, especially in light of recent events.
Ford is doing a ton of damage on his own.
Just an example.
Ford has literally gutted ODSP and his abhorrent handling of the Ontario Autism Program (OAP) is disgraceful and hurtful. They combined Ontario works and ODSP. One noticed immediately a difference. The workers treated ODSP recipients like they were Ontario works recipients. They sent out job search forms, etc. to people that were permanently disabled and incapable of working and humiliating them (ask most disabled people, they will say one of their dreams is to actually go out and work so to have these forms sent to them is literally a slap in the face) because these workers were never trained on how to deal with the disabled only people that were unemployed. It is only the tip of the iceberg on what Ford is doing following his cherished fascist handbook.
