You know what Doug? That guy south of the border? He says the exact same fucking bullshit and you’re not making us feel secure at all.
We need to all start organizing NOW so we can elect an NDP Ontario government. Imagine an NDP provincial government with the federal liberals
I imagine massive tax raises and nothing constructive being done.
Honestly dude where do you get that idea? For the last ten fucking years the liberals and NDP have been saying that they want TO CUT taxes for working and middle class people. Sure, if you make over $250k a year, you might see you taxes go up… Like 5k a year? Boohoo :"( do you even comprehend how much 250k actually is in real terms?
$250k comes out to $148k roughly after taxes (if you live in Ontario).
THATS JUST OVER $12K A MONTH.
After tax, so idk how anybody even in this housing market we have should be having a fucking problem affording life and having a good time. You could literally have a $4000/ month mortgage and be in the “affordable” range. Get fucked

All I know is the NDP propping up a minority liberal federal government saved me 2000 a month in daycare costs. So I sincerely doubt that nothing would get done.
I wouldn’t even be considering a 3rd child if that program wasn’t there.
It’s the one and only thing I agree the liberals are on the right track with. It’s still not a perfect system, but it’s going in the right direction.
Judges are a vital service.
Ford having an issue with a judge that is overseeing a case that was brought forward by the people of Ontario is Ford having an issue with the people.
The Judge is doing a bipartisan job to judge the facts presented by both parties in a equal and fair manner.
We see in the USA just how dangerous it is when a leader stops respecting the judiciary. This is not a good look for Doug Ford, especially at this moment.
We don’t even need to look stateside, attacking the judiciary is nothing new for the Tories.
He waits until the federal election ends and then acts like this. Maybe Ontario will be due for another, this time needed, emergency provincial election
There are absolutely repeat, violent offenders that keep coming in and out of the system, promising rehab programs and never following through, getting in contact with those they’re not meant to.
A judge recently gave a guy two years for killing an elderly Eritrean-Canadian man on the TTC. The guy had 48 convictions, 17 for violent crimes, and 10 convictions for assaulting people on public transport since 2017. The only long term restriction is that he’ll have to engage with a substance abuse program, the same one he’s already abandoned after being ordered to attend it twice before. It’s going to happen again. I can’t imagine what the family is going through. That’s one story, we all know many.
Rather than propose meaningful ways to fix broken parts of the system, Ford just does his idiotic shtick with suggestions like these to look like he cares but his hands are tied.
I’m a US emigrant, living in Japan, and even I know, Fuck Doug Ford!
Does DoFo have any jurisdiction over judges? I guess I don’t know how our judge system works, anybody here know?
He can’t do what he’s doing.
