Ford and his Cabinet Ministers were caught speeding 23 times and fined $3,300.
So Ford banned speed cameras.
Now:
▶️ speeding is up 380%
▶️ 2 people have died in accidents where speed cameras used to be.

Chair of Therme is the president of Palantir Canada.
"Therme" is a fake front for ex-Ford staffers and other Conservative insiders, like Leslie Noble, also at Therme, and married to the prez of Palantir Canada.
They co-founded StrategyCorp, which does Therme's lobbying.
NEW - Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew is again asking Ontario Premier Ford not to pull Crown Royal from the LCBO. The liquor is distilled in Gimli Manitoba, and bottled in Quebec using glass bottles produced in Brampton.
Doug Ford chose to spend $1.4 billion to get booze into corner stores a bit earlier (before an election). $10 billion on highway 413 (his landowner friends get richer). He now wants to blow 100s of billions on his 401 tunnel vision. If only fixing healthcare and our schools…
In an era of great power rivalry, Canada is choosing to be principled and pragmatic. To name reality, to act together, and to build what we claim to believe in.
Welcome to the future Ontario Place. A gigantic taxpayer-funded parking garage on the waterfront. A traffic and environmental nightmare. Paid for by us, and demanded by a private megaspa.
We can and should do better, Ontario! #ONpoli

No one trusts this Premier to make good decisions on environmental protection or to respect a government to government relationship with First Nations. Bill 5 is evidence that skepticism is justified. https://t.co/Zk30LKLeut
NEW: Premier Doug Ford's government gave notice of a motion it plans to use next week to get around the NDP's and Liberals' filibuster of Bill 5.
The PCs could pass the motion early next week, putting them back on track to pass Bill 5 before the summer break from sitting.
Ford's latest assault on our democratic rights:
No vote will be required at committee to pass Bill 5. If there is no Committee vote, "the Bill shall be DEEMED passed by the committee."
In Conservative Ontario, there is no need for MPPs to vote. Ford is passing legislation that assumes we have already voted in his favour.

@paulakoala1234@ColinDMello Amazing how it took years and several successful court challenges to force the government to abide by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and provide more than a 1% annual increase to workers ... but a raise for themselves? Only a few minutes LOL
@rally_ca keep come west on Queens Quay to 90 Stadium Road, Toronto! Your plans and pricing are much better than @beanfieldcanada , especially after multiple price hikes in less than a year.
@BMO Still doesn't work. Walking around to a nearby @bmo branch where I don't bank feels very outdated, plus I would miss on @porterairlines bonus offer. Any up-to-date, modern processes I can do instead?
Hi @BMO : @porterairlines is telling me I have to go to your local branch to apply online for their credit card. How's that work? 'Big bank' processes like this remind me why I decided to transfer all my investments to @Wealthsimple 😅
ahahaha clearly lots of others also received a special invitation from Porter, but BMO being unable to process. Thanks for the special early access @porterairlines 😂https://t.co/VNI5X4Ki39
@porterairlines You invited me to apply for your new credit card; the website couldn't process and recommended I visit a BMO branch. Which one? To ask what? Will they know about my invitation to apply? Do I have to make an appointment? Some details (any at all!) at all would help
