removed protected land from Ontario’s Greenbelt. His behaviour in this case is perfectly on brand.
The Ford brothers vowed to change the culture at city hall. No more perks for coddled councillors. No more cozy inside deals. No more waste and overspending. They would “stop the gravy train.” He used mayor’s office staffers to help coach his football team, asked lobbyists to contribute to his personal football charity and called in leading public servants to ask them to fix the road outside his family’s business. Doug Ford, meanwhile, helped two clients of the Ford family label business in their efforts to lobby city officials.
