Doug Ford, the incumbent premier of Canada’s Ontario province, has declared victory in an election returning his Progressive Conservative party to office for a rarely won third term.

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) projected a sweeping victory for the Progressive Conservatives, with 43% of the vote.

“As we stare down the threat of Donald Trump’s tariffs … I will work with every level of government and every political stripe because fighting back against Donald Trump, standing up for Canada, it will take a full Team Ontario effort,” Ford said.

Trump has threatened 25% tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico. Ontario, a major manufacturing region exporting to the US, would be especially affected.

1. Doug Fraud is a pro-trump traitor to Canada trying to ride the latest wave of our well-justified-patriotism

Doug Fraud is a pro-trump traitor to Canada trying to ride the latest wave of our well-justified-patriotism

1) He already identified repeatedly as a Canadian Maga:
Ford Says His Support for Trump is 'Unwavering'

2) He posed with and was endorsed by an entity listed by the Canadian government as a terrorist organization:
Doug Ford named Proud Boy of the month

3) -He is a sniveling slimy ass fucking right wing conservative weasel just trying to avoid the blowback of his prior praise for tRump,
-Has zero fucking integrity at all
--He is gutting Ontario's universal healthcare system with plans to replace it with a US style private model:
Doug Ford’s Government Wants to Privatize Health Care

Furthermore as Premier of ONTARIO he has no authority to stop oil shipments. That is the FEDERAL responsibility of our great, Liberal CANADIAN Prime Miniter Trudeau - who has done more to protect our sovereignty than this worthless shitbag.

Please stop reposting this con shitbag and giving him free airtime. I say that as a Canadian who ACTUALLY values our sovereignty and our healthcare.

If you want to help, repost material from our Prime Minister- Justin Trudeau.

Sincerely,

A Canadian
