Premier Ford’s antics questioned

Dear Editor,

Who the hell does Doug Ford think he is?

He is not God and he needs to have much more respect for the Prime Minister.

If he cannot respect the man, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, then he should at least respect the office. I do not know the people of Ontario that he is supposed to represent but for him to say that he represents all of Ontario is flagrant hypocrisy on his part.

He may have the majority of the votes in Ontario, but that just means that he was voted in by the majority of people. Even if we only had 40 per cent of the people that live in Ontario, he only represents 20 per cent of the people in Ontario. That is not a big margin.

Ford thinks that because he represents only 20 per cent of the people he represents all of the people of Ontario and he does not.

A lot of people defend him and the mistake that they made, but Ford still does not have the right to set the first ministers meeting agenda. He should not be telling other premiers not to go if his agenda is not met. He is behaving like a spoiled child.
