[Yesterday, on Part 1...]
On the background of a recently-announced greater than $51 billion set aside for infrastructure upgrades and the announcement of a major foreign investment summit to take place in Toronto later this year...
The Mark Carney Liberals now have a majority-designate government. The Prime Minister held a modern day "fireside chat" and the Leader of the Opposition seemed miffed was making use of his own preferred method of communication: unidirectional, uninterrupted, and unfiltered by media.
[Today, on Part 2]
Meanwhile... Back in Ontario...
Doug Ford holds a post-Gravy Plane backflip press conference to talk to Ontarians, but it seems he couldn't decide whether it's objective was to deliver a mea culpa or to keep making the case for his pre-backflip decision or to present himself as the real victim, so like Mariah Carey, he just hit all the notes.
Unfortunately, he's not Mariah Carey, so it was just a hot mess...
And not much of an apology either...
In addition, Ford sets himself up as a foil on algorithmic pricing for NDP Leader Avi Lewis.
