Premier Ford claims he's been completely blindsided by the revelations surrounding multiple questionable calls his government made in the $8.28-billion Greenbelt scandal

"I talk to thousands of people all throughout the year ...and you’re asking me to remember what I did or said two years ago ... ,” said Ford, emphasizing he has no memory of apparent private meetings with Greenbelt developers in 2021.

Not only did #DougFord meet privately with a developer to discuss the removal of his lands from the Greenbelt, this meeting (which the Premier says he "does not remember") took place at a $1,200-a-ticket Conservative fundraiser...held at the developer's house.
