👀 Oh look, this right wing account is quoting the US hedge Fund owned right wing National Post as if it is a credible source. The article quotes the Fraser Institute as if it is a trusted authority, and it is not.
I've said it before and I'm saying it again, this account is a Canadian-US conservative propaganda outlet masking its nature with an official sounding title.

Here's the NP article

#RobFord and #DougFord, just like #Trump, are also famously "transparent", their word.

The truth is that they are not transparent at all, they're merely accessible, never turning down a microphone put in front of them. And if ever the coverage is negative, they insult the press and declare they are the victim of a "witch hunt" or of some "conspiracy" or of "the left".

Meanwhile, they hinder real transparency, like eliminating Freedom of Information (ATIP).

#RobFord, the #CrackSmokingMayor, encouraged by his brother #DougFord, did it first in 2012 when Rob was only getting drunk at civic events, denying it, and vilifying the media.

And #Trump saw it working in 2012 when he opened Trump Tower Toronto.

Trump walked out of an interview because Kristen Welker - the reporter, wouldn't let him sit there and keep lying. She pressed on & did her job, the way the press is supposed to.

I would say 'Kudos', but that's supposed to be their job.
