    Yes, but the original post stated, Ford waited for things to look bad for him before he switched sides. Ford was pretty quick to say fuck them.

    Yes he’s conservative but he’s Canadian first

    To be clear I didn’t vote for him but I could have.

      Yeah I’m as unhappy as I am he’s in charge … he’s at least got Canada as his priority unlike Danielle Smith.

      Yeah I think as soon as he heard about tariffs again he was immediately aggressive about it.

      He’s an asshole for sure, but he’s our asshole.

      I just don’t know how he forgot about this all when on US election night.

        Not ‘our’ asshole, just a populist. They see the way the wind in blowing and make a bunch of noise about it and then do what they were always going to do, which is sell off more of the province to Mattamy.
