Social media is buzzing after Ontario’s Premier Doug Ford swallowed a bee during a live news conference in Dundalk, Ont.
Ford is on site for an announcement with Vic Fedeli, Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation, and Trade, and was discussing the status of Ontario’s health care.
Leading up to incident, a lone bee can be seen buzzing around Ford’s head before it disappeared into Ford’s mouth mid-sentence. “Holy Christ, I just swallowed a bee!,” exclaimed Ford. “I’m good, he’s down here buzzing around right now. He has a lot of real estate.”“He's wedged in my throat, sorry guys,” the Premier told media, touching his throat. “Man, he went right down the hatch.”
Ford, laughing, said the incident was “a classic,” assuring reporters he was fine and “the bee is building a hive down there.”“I’m going to be howling tonight watching this tape,” he said.
