    Those of us who live in the province but voted for someone else aren’t quite sure, but the fact that a lot of people seem not to have realized the last election was even taking place may have had something to do with it.

      First-past-the-post giving him a false majority.

        Because he doesn’t campaign on policy, and most people couldn’t really tell you his policies other than “cheap beer, open for business, Toronto bad”.

          That’s the one day people support him

          Toronto will vote for anyone with the last name Ford

          And Ontario for some reason always votes for the Con/Lib based on which isn’t in power Federally

                Yeah I don’t get it. Are they just advertising these elections on conservative talk radio or something?

                  Half the reason we are in this mess is Toronto was too smart to elect Doug mayor and now instead the whole province gets to deal with him. He also gets to get revenge on Toronto by demolishing bike lanes.

                    To be fair he didn’t really offer. He threw around the term buck a beer a couple times but booze has actually been increasing in price since hes been elected.

                      They elected his brother because the opponent was gay

                      He took road money from Northern Ontario to pay for the 401 expansion in Toronto

                      There’s a reason people outside Toronto call him Premier of Toronto

                          He did but it wasn’t really a campaign, he only just met the deadline after Rob dropped out due to health

                          The next run he gave up on it before the vote to be provincial PC leader

                            Yeah but wasn’t there supposed to be the “buck a beer” beer that he had going? Is that still a thing?

                              Except on election day. Where where these people when they could have stopped him?
