Globe editorial: Doug Ford’s troubling first week as Ontario premier
When Doug Ford was sworn in as premier on June 29, he claimed that his Progressive Conservative government would be “Ontario’s first ever Government for the People.”
That’s the kind of empty political sloganeering that you can only stare at in helpless wonder. It raises so many questions. What were Ontario’s previous governments for? The trees? If not the voters, for whom were they working when they helped build the province into a prosperous, open and modern society?
And why is “People” capitalized?
