It’s been reported that Premier Doug Ford has told Mark Carney that the prime minister could seize the moment to turn his minority government into a clear majority. The premier should know.
When Ford stood next to Windsor’s Ambassador Bridge a year ago to announce a snap election, he declared it was necessary to get a stronger mandate to protect Ontario. He promised to “fight” against the Trump administration’s tariff threats, adding, “We’ll also be ready to do whatever is necessary to stand up for and protect Ontario, our workers, businesses, communities.”
