With an election coming up, its time to list Doug Ford's corruption and failures.
This will go one at a time, with updates to the full list.
Starting with the highest monetary corruption scandal in Canadian history.

1) - The Greenbelt Scandal - Doug Ford rezoned farmland at the request of his wedding guest/donors, giving them a reported $8 billion windfall before a single house was built.
2) Sending out $200 checks before he announces an election despite running the biggest deficit in Ontario history.
3) Bill 124 - A bill to freeze nurses wages while giving his own cabinet raises. Taken to court, Ford wasted $4.3 of Ontario money losing in court followed by $6.7 billion in retroactive wages.
4) Using agency nurses instead of publicly funded nurses. Ford did this for two reasons, one to award contracts to corporate agencies and two, to try to attack the nurses union. This cost Ontario $1 billion. Confirmed by the auditor.
5) $225 million contract to build the Scarborough Subway Extension to a sanctioned Russian Oligarch.

Still a better option than Crombie...
The "greenbelt scandal" is done...why you still grasping at that straw?

Its not done, its still supposed to be under RCMP investigation.
Its still a way bigger scandal than any Trudeau scandal.
Bar none.

Far from being the most corrupt but inept I would agree with. I didn't vote for him in 2022 and I won't vote for him in 2026. Bill 124 was ridiculous, the government must have known it would have been challenged and overturned. If I was an MPP I wouldn't have voted for it. They probably would have kicked me out of the party. What made it even worse was COVID and then inflation. They should have been smarter and negotiated a 4 year contract it would have probably cost taxpayers 1.5% to 2% per year instead of the 7.25% that was awarded over 3 years.

He's corrupt.
Why would he award a $225 million contract to a sanctioned Russian oligarch?

5) $225 million contract to build the Scarborough Subway Extension to a sanctioned Russian Oligarch.
