For whatever else he might be, Doug Ford is a very adept politician.
non-paywalled link: https://archive.is/iI4OM
I don't really see the point of linking an article that requires a subscription. Surely subscribers aren't coming to Lemmy to find out when a new article drops.
apologies I actually meant to put the archive link in the post but seem to have forgotten.
As to why I would post a pay-walled article is simple; I believe if we want to continue having quality journalism in this country it is something we need to appropriately fund. We can't rely on only the CBC (and not just because PP and the cpc want to destroy it). As far as I can tell this is original reporting from the Star so I do kinda feel it is morally correct to link to them first. (although I do not disagree with archive links for paywall bypass maybe that makes me a hypocrite.. meh)
I feel its also especially important to fund the star right now as it is one of the last Canadian owned mainstream news outlets that isnt distinctly right wing (even if it is slowly drifting to the right imo) and isn't ideologically driven (IE Press Progress, CanadaLand).
PP can go suck a fuck!
Imagine PP stamping his feet and balling his hands into tiny little fists, as a previously unpopular conservative premier outshines him.
I certainly don't like Doug Ford, but the contrast in likeability is staggering.
