Where is Doug Ford?

I have no idea. I'm not even personally sure if telling the commission to pound salt was a good idea or not. There are clear issues with the process and I can see advantages and disadvantages to testifying or avoiding like the plague.

I think he'll run. Considering the inept candidates each party has been putting up in each successive election...he'd probably be a shoe in for a position.

Is he fluent in French? From what I understand it's almost impossible to become prime minister here if your not bilingual.

He has been doing french lessons on our dime IIRC. It was one of the attacks on him previously that he was spending so much money trying to learn french while being premier of ontario. A french debate between Douggie and JT would be a slaughter. He may get to passable.

Given enough resources and time this is not insurmountable. If the man wants to be PM, he’s probably already learning behind closed doors.

Or just you know…not do it and hide, and still manage to win.

Is there a rule that he MUST be bilingual and fluent? Or passable is enough?

As a start, electoral districts make it almost impossible to win if francophone districts all vote for the other guy.
 
Chretien wasn't the most bilingual knife in the drawer.

Ah well my buddy working for the Feds has this benefit as well. Even better he didn't have to do his regular work while he was being trained...he didn't mention that party until 6 months later...

Yawn. Did we really need a $20M commission to tell us all this stuff?

Your federal govt at work putting perfume on another pig.
 
First we elect the “officials “ , then they promptly hire consultants to tell them how to do the job they just got. We they get it wrong we convene a committee to hold an inquiry to figure out how the right answer was wrong . And we hire more consultants to address the committee and offer professional opinion. And everybody gets paid .

The only thing Dougie's done right is push through the downtown relief line, otherwise he's been pretty much stepping on his own d*ck.
Now we wait to see how much of a boondoggle that turns into.
