Remember when Trump won the election and Ford celebrated? Even though he says he's fighting for Ontario, he's been slowly taking away our democratic rights behind the scenes. If you're concerned, join this discussion on Monday night at UofT. Register here:

Doug Ford tells someone protesting his disastrous Bill 60 to find a job.
The gall of the laziest premier telling someone to get a job.
