The problem with the PCs, just like the Republicans down south, is their inability to see the bigger picture.

And those consequences are political as well. Probably the biggest opponents of Doug Ford should his own party because the biggest beneficiaries of Doug Ford as premier will ultimately be the Liberals. Already Ford is helping Trudeau.

That's why I don't mind Ford so much, the same way I don't mind Trump. If you look at the bigger picture, they might be doing us a favour. Short term pain for long term gain.
Quite true!
