Doug Ford’s right-hand man, PC MPP went to Las Vegas with Greenbelt developer: sources

Wow, I swear every news article that comes out about this gets wilder and wilder. I'm hella impressed with the investigating that some of the reporters have been doing.

Just this week there's more proof Ford knew about these changes well before he was claiming he did, one of his big defenses against the claims he tipped off key developers of the changes. (Proof he knew by June 2022, not Nov 2022 like he's claiming).

For those who don't know/haven't followed, there is tons of proof of sketchy things around this greenbelt changes like TACC development (one of the big developers) buying protected land at a ridiculous 21% interest rate less than a year before the greenbelt changes.

Here is a link to the Narwhal that does a good job of summarizing the situation for anyone not in the know. They've been doing a great job digging at this story, along with the Star reporters.

They don't even try to hide their close friendships with developers.

I guess it wouldn't be so bad if not for the fact that the PCs clearly cannot separate business from friendship, too. We do need development in the province. But not at the cost of the Greenbelt. Nor do we need things like selling off highways or healthcare for profit.

The, "I like him because he says what I think" crowd will NEVER stop voting against their own self-interest and the interests of the province as long as they think he's, "owning the libs". Billions of dollars of corruption are ok as long as it upsets those damned intellectual elitists who look down on them.

Open corruption at its finest people.
