    I’m unconvinced enough voters are punishing Ford despite all of his mistakes.

    Too many people get riled up over national politics and international events while ignoring their civic duties in their community and province. It’s disappointing.

      Agreed. In fact, provincial elections are more important than federal ones when it comes to internal matters despite the lack of attention provincial policies get.

      The more local an election is, the more it matters to you on a personal level, though Ford is an exception since he’s hyper-focused on ruining Toronto, so he’s way more important than the mayor considering how much he steps right over the city’s own leadership.

      I agree - and I’d also highlight that his response to US aggression was pretty decent overall so that’s likely in the front of a lot of voters minds.
