They know all this*. They don’t care. *Maybe Doug doesn’t. He’s not the brightest light on his wife’s Menorah.

I don’t see why a constitutional amendment would be used vs simple delegation via provincial act - like they did last time. Only conceivable way would be in response to a massive BQ-style or Catalan-esque protest movement but can’t imagine we’d get to that

He must have meant GTA - which is just stupid when you’re talking about Toronto. But then numbers aren’t his strong suit.

Umm, that's the definition of meddling. He's mucking around in areas with serious policy implications for solely personal reasons.

He’s consolidating power through “loyalty tests” to make sure everyone toes the party line. Propose something minor but controversial and see who pushes back. He did the same thing back in 2010 with reducing bus service to make sure Rob’s excomm members played ball. Once he gets these wins he...

People say the darndest things when there’s a gun to their head.

I don’t think anyone, least of all Tory, considered Lastman to be a credible threat. But he did add a chaos factor that Tory surely doesn’t mind seeing disappear.

She will lose successfully and then run for Liberal leader. And if Tory implodes then so much the better. But money has her in Queen’s Park by Christmas 2020.

So that clearly assumes that office budgets won’t increase to shoulder the new load.

I don’t think reducing council to 25 is necessarily the wrong answer, but you can’t half-ass the process. Everything else about the legislative function changes when you reduce the size - committee structure, role of excomm (it’ll be half the new council?), community councils, role of the...

So you joined a few days ago. Are you part of Peddie’s team?

If you check their Instagram feeds you'll see that they've settled into the socialite role quite nicely. Lots of Queen's Plate and dress up parties. And a special appearance by Ron Taverner as an aide-de-camp!

Three words: Rick. The. Temp.

Ministers are just backbenchers with a driver and a nicer office.

He’ll take money out of Deco over Rob’s dead body!

Might as well just wear Velcro

Can we stick to Clinton’s emails?

Other than power, the only things that seem to matter to him are his mother, his business and his wife (in that order). $5 says at least 2 of those 3 don’t make it to the end of his first term.

It’s not that he likes to micromanage - it’s that he’s clearly incapable of understanding complex problems so that’s what he defaults to.

Oh please. This is exactly the shitty narrative that got the PCs elected. Ford’s economic plan is far more dangerous to the province than the NDP would have been. Where the NDP failed was in the year before the election when they should have been pushing themselves as a steady hand and...
