Put another way, Ford wants to spend more on removing bike lanes in Toronto ($48M) than he's spent protecting all of Ontario's businesses from an international trade war. Ontario deserves serious leadership, that follows through on promises, and actually puts people before profits.

Doug Ford is all words, no action. He promised $5 billion to protect Ontario businesses from Trump's tariffs. Two years in, he's given $100m to one steel company and only spent $40M across all other businesses.

Doug “Pertect Ontario!” Ford spent $189M of our money to call a snap election so he would have “a clear mandate to pertect Ontario from US tariffs!” and another $75M to run anti-tariff ads and now Stelco’s poised to lay off 350 Canadian workers, but rest assured Doug still has his eye on the ball.
