Even for Ford standards, the last month or so of headlines have been insane.

>The Billy Bishop airport move.
>The Convention Centre on an island thing.
>the cell phone log is nuts but self-explanatory.
>Today, it’s him sounding off against Crombie running in Mississauga.
Add in the OSAP changes that got panned and have led (and leading to more protests). If there was an election coming, Id get doing this. However he has a strong mandate, theres no liberal leader either and the NDP isnt an option for a lot of the province.
The only thing that even makes some sense is since the courts said 2 weeks ago he has to hand over his phone records since he used his personal phone at work, something is on there that might be scandal worthy.
Other wise freaking out over the FOI questions from reporters doesnt add up even for Ford in his situation.
The coalitions are going to be really weird if Crombie runs. Crombie would be running to the right of Parrish, but wouldn’t have the support of Ford’s people.
I’m not a fan of the backup plans these former provincial politicians have though, especially Crombie trying to get back her old job. Ontario and Mississauga rejected her, she should just go away.
The guy is really using Trump’s playbook. As long as whoever the person is is legally elected and qualified. There is nothing he can or should do.
What even is the point? He beat her, kept her out of Parliament. She was never a serious threat to him, so why this hostility?
>“You know something, I never get involved in municipal elections“
Buddy, you halved the size of Toronto city council during an election period and then threatened to use the *notwithstanding clause* to keep doing it.
There is literally no Premier in the entire history of Ontario that has been more involved in municipal elections.
