Yep. This debate will change nothing. Crombie is much better than del duca but she's not comfortable in her own skin. Stiles is trapped appeasing a party that is pretty much two parties stuck in one. I think the Liberals will upgrade to a bus on E-Night and the ONDP might end up in a minivan.
She had so much to attack Ford with, and she missed the mark every time.
Also, she utterly failed to stick to a single message that might have broken through. Ford kept saying he was the best for the economy over and over. People retain a repeated message. What was hers?
He has cost us millions in the LCBO debacle, the stupid licence thing, the selling of Ontario place to foreign entities and the greenbelt corruption. He is a fraudster but simple words appeal to the masses. We are no better than the maggots down south. It’s pathetic.
Nate, if Ford wins again, any progressive leader the Libs might have will only find a smoking ruin of a province, too bankrupt to do anything even nominally "progressive".
Would be fascinated to read a column where you explain, in detail, exactly how the private housing market will deliver affordability despite that being against the interest of everyone involved in the private housing market. Since you know, Bonnie's "don't worry the market will sort everything out despite that making no sense and being basically unprecedented" housing policy is "a dream".
Even the more neighbours folks, when you really press them, will admit that, ok, the best you can do with the private market is slow or *maybe* stop price growth.

Have yall ever heard of the glass cliff? Might be worth looking it up to add a bit more nuance.
If Bonnie didn’t want to take a poisoned chalice she was perfectly allowed to stay as Mayor
Ah, because the liberal party is very individualistic and never pushes systemically, right

We’re only completely fucked if the Liberals / NDP (same party) were to gain any power again in our lifetimes in Ontario. 👎
