Doug Ford Congratulates Olivia Chow at Press conference at GFL in North Dumfries.
Premier Doug Ford, standing in front of two garbage trucks, congratulates mayor-elect Olivia Chow and takes questions from the press this morning after speaking about investment and increasing diversity in the trucking industry.
Just after he said "oh noes if you vote for her, taxes would go up 25 to 30 per cent and businesses would flee the city."
Quite the about-face. His handlers must've told him to change his tune.
I mean this is standard behavior every election... outgoing guy says "So and so will be a great leader. Democracy has spoken, etc." I know in this case they're not the outgoing person but standard politics 101.
I see no change in tune. He basically said that things will go smoothly if she plays by his rules.
How long before Ford goes away?
Not soon enough
