Ontario Premier Doug Ford has unveiled a new Lake Ontario sign Saturday afternoon, just days after Donald Trump renamed the Great Lake as “Lake America.”
Ford’s appearance in Winona, Ont., came as Canada-U.S. trade tensions continue to escalate, with the premier using the name change to reinforce his message that Ontario will “never back down” and always defend its interests.
“President Trump can call it whatever, but I can tell you the rest of the world will always call it Lake Ontario,” Ford said.
Is doug ford right wing himself? I thought he was kind of a piece of shit from previous readings. I don’t care about him smoking crack, that’s not my concern at all.
Oh yea, he’s right wing, especially financially. And a corrupt piece of shit, but the sound bites play well with the media. He may have some Canadian pride that’s genuine, but he’d sell out the province to make a buck for himself or his friends.
He’s/was more a dealer than a user. His brother Rob became well known for smoking crack, among consuming other things, while mayor of Toronto.
The late Rob Ford was the one that was on tape smoking crack and was the mayor of Toronto. Doug is his brother.
They were very much a proto-trump, “anti-establishment”.
The white Merian Berry (sp) of canada.
Marian Berry or however you spell his name, was mayor of DC, black. He leaned into it, wore dashikis (traditional african robes,) to events.
Anyway he got caught smoking crack with hookers in a motel room, then got re-elected. This was a while back, in the 90s I think.
