  1. I’d like to see the millionaire Ford relinquish one of his many homes, chalets, condos or cottages for people in need. People need homes!

  2. “We’ll folks, I am as corrupt as they come. I went back on my election promise to never touch the greenbelt or open it up for development. And folks, now you can see how I blatantly lied so I could enrich the DeGasperis family fortunes from being multi-billionaires to now multi-multi-billionaires. They told me how to do this so I wouldn’t look like I had anything to do with it. And folks, I will simply let my ministers take the fall for this if I ever got caught. And that’s what I’m doing now. They also told me to keep repeating the mantra “build more homes, build more homes” if I ever got caught, even though building more homes has nothing at all to do with how corrupt I am. It will distract the public and confuse the issue. The DeGasperis family wants to build mega mansions on virgin land in the greenbelt, outside of the city, and folks, you gotta know this has nothing to do with solving the lack of affordable homes within Toronto, but most folks are pretty dumb and they’ll never see the disconnect. And folks, I got elected on the smallest majority in Ontario history. I also got elected in the smallest turnout of any provincial vote. I just barely squeaked by, and now I can do what I want. I mean, what the developers want

  3. The greenbelt is nowhere near downtown Toronto, where there’s a serious lack of affordable homes

  5. He’s Tom a hard working family. And he was lucky enough to be born into it. What has Doug done to earn his wealth or make a name for himself, besides enriching himself through backroom deals with shady characters?
