Canada’s Not For Sale But Doug Ford Is
Yesterday, Doug Ford attended a premiers’ summit with Justin Trudeau, wearing a hat that read “Canada is not for sale.” He declared his support for retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods, suggesting Canada should hit back “twice as hard” in the event of a trade war with Trump’s government.
But the irony is glaring: Doug Ford is for sale himself.
Here are just three examples of Doug Ford’s corrupt PC pay-to-play politics:
In Bed with Amazon Lobbyists
Just one month after Amazon hired a lobbying firm owned by Ford PC campaign manager Kory Teneycke, the Ford PCs fast-tracked the construction of a 1-million-square-foot Amazon facility in Cambridge using an MZO (Minister’s Zoning Order). This process bypassed regular planning rules and excluded public consultations or appeals.
COVID-19 Corruption
The Ford PCs didn’t just impose the longest lockdowns in North America — they awarded more than $100 million in COVID-related contracts to private firms without competitive bidding. Additionally, Ford’s decision to reopen parts of the economy just weeks before the June 2022 provincial election raised concerns about using public health measures to boost his political standing.
Fundraising Ties to Lobbyists
Reports have revealed that Doug Ford attended high-priced fundraising events where lobbyists, developers, and corporate representatives paid to gain access to Ford and senior government officials. Developers who attended these events were later found to benefit from government decisions, such as land being removed from the Greenbelt for housing projects.
The New Blue Party of Ontario was formed to offer the solutions necessary to ensure our province’s future is one of hope, opportunity, and prosperity.
We will continue the fight to ban lobbyists from party politics.
