Reason #1 why #FordMustGo
If you looked back on media headlines during Ford's term as premier I suspect it would be staggering in terms of documenting his incompetence, lack of compassion, dumb statements, moronic decisions and serving private industry interests. Thankfully, there's a list.... and it's staggering...
Reason #2 why #FordMustGo
Ford has missed every target set for housing while he has been premier. Their target of 1.5M homes by 2031 was considered low as it would not keep pace with population growth, and most industry experts expect them to miss by 50% or more. In 2023, they got innovative and started counting long-term care beds. In 2024, they considered switching to tallying permits versus actual building starts.
Reason #3 why #FordMustGo
Ford wants to reduce gridlock so his SUV can get to the Legislature quickly but fails to realize that means you have to eliminate cars, not make more room for them. We should be encouraging alternative transport options like walkable cities, bike lanes, ebikes, and subsidized excellent public transit. Instead, we get a moronic policy response that targets bike lanes.
Ontariio Premier Ford, trumpist, is tearing out bike lanes, (for gas cars) AND making of illegal to sue the government for killing bicyclists.
