Ontario Liberals have a new leader.But is Bonnie Crombie really any different from Doug Ford?
Just like Ford, Bonnie wants to cut your health care and child care:
She wants to spend less on your health care and child care.
She thinks the Liberals have "moved much too far to the left," and will govern from "right of centre."
Bonnie is "Doug Ford lite, peddling the same kind of insider elite politics" - Liberal Yasir Naqvi
Just like Ford, Bonnie's cozy with developers:
Speculators and insiders bankrolled her leadership and council campaigns.
She collected nearly $30,000 from executives at a single development company.
"You cannot elect a leader who takes money from the same people who are donating to Doug Ford and says that somehow they're going to act any different." - Liberal Yasir Naqvi
Just like Ford, Bonnie wants to carve up the Greenbelt:
She endorsed Ford's Greenbelt plan.
She wants to leave the door open to develop parts of the Greenbelt.
"Are we going to win with a leader who said we’re going to open up the Greenbelt?" - Liberal Nathaniel Erskine-Smith
Just like Ford, Bonnie won't build more housing:
Mississauga's pace towards its housing targets is only at 29% of what it needs to be.
She was too busy with her leadership ambitions to show up for a critical vote at Mississauga City Hall, which failed on a tie. She had to use Ford's 'strong mayor' powers to fix her $120 million mistake.
"Young people have left the city of Mississauga more than any other municipality because housing did not get built in the last decade. Are we going to win with a leader who has a track record of failing to build homes?" - Liberal Nathaniel Erskine-Smith
Join the Official Opposition to Doug Ford.
Together, we'll replace Doug Ford in 2026 with a government that will make life easier and more affordable for real people—not Doug & Bonnie’s insiders.
