Watching Doug Ford drive the bus<\/strong><\/p>\n

…the spirit of freedom has not often shone brighter in Ontario than the willingness to go along to get along. Ontario is a deeply legitimist polity. It put up with film-board censors and pursed-lipped liquor-board monopolies long after such excesses were laughing stocks in other parts of the country. It tolerated darker excesses of authority, like the gay bathhouse raids of 1981 or the draconian crushing of the G20 riots in 2010\u2014not all Ontarians, not by any means, but more than civil libertarians or other flavours of idealists would have hoped.<\/p>\n
