It's happening, the worst mayor Toronto has ever had is removing three major recently completed bike lanes at tax payer expense. That's right, Ontario tax payers are footing the bill for Ford to meddle in Toronto municipal infrastructure. This is of course to distract us from failing healthcare and education while appealing to his mostly car centric base.

There is a protest happening Wed. 23rd of October, please come out if you can. https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/rally-ride-for-road-safety-tickets-1045417761667

This is Doug Ford placating to his base - the suburbanites and rural voters who cares about roads only for their cars.

DoFo in campaign mode is the slimiest.

He's also straight up virtue signalling for the O&G industry. War On Cars and all that.
