Doug Ford keeps going on and on about "elites", "the establishment" vs. "the people", and it's kind of hard to talk about those sort of things while completely ignoring things like race or ethnicity as factors.

If you run a divisive campaign, don't be surprised if people get divided. The difference with Justin Trudeau is he did not campaign based on division.
