Last night, #DougFord and his #Ontario Place tsarina finally “got it done.” Under cover of darkness, heavy machinery began levelling the entire stand of 850 mature trees on the West Island...clearing public waterfront parkland for a private spa nobody wants...to fulfill a secret century-long deal with a Austrian waterpark developer.

and still riding high in the polls, go figure

The polls are trending downwards since July. https://338canada.com/ontario/polls.htm

@505fred @moredread @gemelliz

that's an optimistic take.

with a few exceptions Ford has been above +10 since the election, and since July swung from 18 to 11 back to 15. I don't know if those are meaningful differences, but I expect it still translates to a comfortable majority if there was an election today.

Given the shit he's pulled it's hard to imagine what it will take to convince the electorate it's past time to turf him

@plantarum @505fred @moredread @gemelliz Imagine if there was an opposition party offfering literally any sort of alternative. The state of opposition in Ontario is disgraceful.
