Episode 7: Premier Ford is rebranding the Greenbelt Scandal (and hopes we won't notice)
Description
Episode 7 of The Bill Kelly Podcast is LIVE!
The Ontario PCs are on shaky ground, particular Premier Doug Ford.
The Premier has once again shuffled his cabinet after the loss of two key ministers. Former Housing Minister Steve Clark, and now, former Labour Minister Monty McNaughton both resigned this past month.
Some are suggesting a lack of confidence in Ford's leadership, and the Premier’s apology for opening up the Greenbelt was not well received by opposition parties, or the public.
Ford continues to face strong criticism, but it remains to be seen how this will affect his chance of reelection, and his future in politics.
Premier Ford has also faced backlash for his decision to build a new highway, Highway 413, which will have negative implications on both agriculture and the environment.
Will Premier Doug Ford survive his term as leader of Ontario?
Bill is joined by former Toronto Star journalist Richard Brennan to break down a hellacious month in provincial politics.
