In full: Ontario Premier Doug Ford’s 2018 mandate letters
While the Ford government has been fighting in court to keep these letters a secret, Global News obtained and independently verified the letters as part of the 'Mandated' series.
Aand then they broke every one of those mandate messages, just like every other politician does eventually. Rules for thee, not for me - COVID parties, cottaging while others lock down, maskless gatherings. And now recently, selling the Greenbelt off to developers. How ethical! Clearly he is holding all to account.
They are a government of the people.
We're just not the right people.
That's why they're spending $400 million to build a parking garage for a private spa being built on public lands under a secret 99 year lease and why they gave an $8 billion gift to wealthy developer friends of the premier by pulling undevelopable land out of the greenbelt.
Unless you have a million dollar yacht that you use as a tender for your billion dollar yacht you're not "the people" that the mandate letters referred to.
This is a great point, he never clarifies which people he talking about. And who does he mean by "folks"?
This is a great point, he never clarifies which people he talking about
They never do.
It's like when they say, "We don't want our hard earned money going to provide services for poor people." Unless you own a million dollar yacht that you use as a tender for your billion dollar yacht they're not speaking FOR you, they're speaking ABOUT you. The people who vote for them aren't their people, they're just useful idiots.
Skimmed through it, didn't find anything strange. Did anyone find anything interesting?
That's what I was thinking too. Why did they fight so hard to not release them?
Intentional release, hiding an ethical start to what they have become to draw attention to their ideals before they sold us all out.
To waste everyone’s time and make everyone look in the wrong direction while they do something terrible. To give their people something to point to when looking for examples of “nothingburgers”.
