Ontario Premier Doug Ford told Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre he would be too busy governing Ontario to help in the upcoming federal election campaign.
As a BCer I’d agree that is normally the case but there’s significantly more independence between provincial and the federal parties than exists in the US. My example? Christy Clarke, the BC Liberal party former Premier who was more deeply conservative than Doug Ford.
Yeah, over here in NS we had a NDP leader who was more in the pocket of business than the cons at the time. Our premier distanced himself from pp during the last election. Though he’s pulling all kinds of shady shit that should get a non confidence vote started.
