Shouldn't you be focused on policies rather than appearance? Ontario is not set to be immigrant majority. Yes there will be more non-Caucasian people but I don't see us getting to a point where more than half of Ontarians were born outside Ontario.

What's a Hoser accent?!? I find Ford speaks the way he does because he's not well educated. Is that what Hoser means?

But I do have to tell you that for whatever reason, white males are quite popular in politics in Canada no matter which party. The Prime Minister and all provincial Premiers are white males. And many minorities voted for them.

Doug's biggest problem is far from his skin colour or Y chromosome. He has many, many other flaws.

In fact, hating on him because he's white and male is likely counterproductive. It tends to make people 'circle the wagons' based on those topics, which is masks his other glaring flaws. Ontario is still ~50% male, last I checked.
