Par for the fucking course. Remember how his crackhead brother cost Toronto nearly $100M in cancellation fees, wasted work, and then probably hundreds of millions more in lost productivity by writing a one page memo on mayoral letterhead cancelling Transit City?

It infuriates me that people think conservatives are good with money. They burn through hundreds of millions in utter and complete bullshit while championing 'efficiencies' and burning the system down from the inside.

Folks, we have to remember the gas plants!

But seriously, I think it's clear for anyone who's following, that we're way beyond that at this point. I'm pretty sure we already topped the gas plants losses during Ford's first mandate with the cancellation of green energy projects and such.

Rob Ford was utterly delusional about his accomplishments or was a Trumpian scale pathological lair. Everything he claimed to have accomplished was clearly and demonstrably a lie.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Last month, Premier Doug Ford apologized to Ontarians and walked back the government's decision to remove 2,995 hectares of protected land from the Greenbelt to pave the way for housing development.

The stunning flip-flop came after public outcry and separate inquiries from both the province's integrity commissioner and auditor general revealed major flaws with the process.

The protected agricultural land soared in value to about $8.3 billion after last November's initial Greenbelt opening announcement, Ontario's auditor general found in his report.

Ford sidestepped questions last month about what the legal ramifications of the reversal might be, but Gilbert said he can see the government justify not paying anything by leaning into the fact that not much development has happened yet.

Still, Trevor Farrow, dean of York University's Osgoode Hall Law School, said developers could try to hold the provincial government liable for money spent on architects, designers and other experts hired to map out prospective builds.

Even if developers feel confident they can make a case for bad faith, Forristal says the Greenbelt Act itself will be tricky to navigate as the it has not allowed for any claims, compensations or damages to date.

I suppose if they bought the land after he had opened it there could be a case

Remember how canceling the gas plant was such a big deal?

To who? Hudak also vowed to cancel said plant if he won. Horwath would never say, but also strongly hinted that she would also do the same if she won. There really wasn't anyone opposed to it.
