#Ontario's own #Trump, #DougFord, wants to keep hold on power beyond even his opportunistically obtained mandate earlier this year by moving elections to 5-years instead of 4-years.

He also wants to remove fixed election dates, instead holding snap-opportunistic elections when it is favourable for the party in power just like he did earlier this year!

The next election is supposed to be June 2029, but he wants to stay in power until
!!!
2030
!!!
without needing another election!

Donation limit increase so he needs fewer large donors? Yup!

Donations limits previously increased with inflation, but 'ol Dougie wants them to increase by 50%!

Just as Donald Trump with his demanding states gerrymander districts to secure his power, Doug Ford is making changes secure his power!

Ford and Trump are cut from the same cloth!
