I don’t want to comment one way or another on the health and well-being of Doug Ford in this particular instance, other than to say thank god he didn’t actually die, but for those of us who have had any regular experience driving on the 401, how are we fucking surprised by this?

The driving is absolutely atrocious even without dangerous, reckless and incompetent drivers, and our infrastructure and institutions basically are forcing more and more drivers to be on the roads, even when the science explicitly states that the only way to reduce traffic is to reduce the number of cars on the road, full stop. Do you think, by chance, that this would have happened on a train? A bus? I know that there are physical and logistical impracticalities of getting the Premier transported securely and safely outside of a dedicated transport vehicle, BUT THAT IS EXACTLY WHERE WE THE PUBLIC ARE STUCK.

I’m sure another fucking highway to nowhere will solve all our problems…

They once said that Ukraine would get absolutely rolled by Russia within 3 days, 2 weeks tops.

Never underestimate a pissed off underdog, especially when fealty to the US President is nowhere near as “strong” / co-opted as in the Russian Federation.
