Doug Ford keeps on getting reelected, his brother was the mayor of Toronto despite the drugs and overall unseriousness... I mean why do people elect these guys? Is it for the memes and laughs?

I'm being totally serious when I ask this btw. What does the average Doug voter's rationale for getting this guy in office? Same with former Rob Ford voters. Who voted for Rob Ford? Why?

Rob won because his opponent was gay and Toronto couldn't have a gay mayor.

Ontario is cold Florida.

About half of Ontarians are outright racists, homophobic, and sexist. They just hide it. Never fool yourself into believing otherwise.
