Doug Ford, pretending not to be Trump, closes out an ad saying "help is on the way".

Such bull****. He would start to de engineer public schools, that work great in Ontario, etc... He is talking about 20% tax cuts for the middle class. Someone making $40,000 would get $18 back. Someone making $109,000 would get over $1000. This is smoke an mirrors. All under the guts of the cynical "help is on the way". As if he would lead a helping government as he gets rid of cap and trade and the min wage increase.

Yeah, NDP's looking strong and stronger. I hope they manage to swing those last couple of points in the ridings they need to grab a minority, or at least keep the PCs to a minority. We can't afford another Mike Harris times 10.
