Doug Ford is certainly a sociologist's nightmare. And he's currently focused on fighting Trudeau on having a carbon tax and changing sex-ed in schools. He wants to cut government spending by 2% but has no plan.
As for the upcoming election, I really don't know how well Ford or the PCs will
do. The PCs don't have anybody really likeable running for leadership. Christine Elliott isn't a very good speaker and it wouln't be easy for her to take on Wynne. Maybe the NDP under Andrea Horwath will get "protest votes" like the party did in 1990?
Ford reminds me of a Mike Harris with less intelligence.
