Premier Doug Ford capped off the first day of Ontario’s election campaign in London, where he pledged his government would spend $1 billion to build a new police college. Ford made the vow Wednesday evening when he spoke to a crowd of London police officers and other guests at the London Police Service Chief’s Gala at RBC Place London.

While Premier Doug Ford insists that U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff threat is why he's calling an election 15 months ahead of schedule, there are plenty of reasons why the timing is politically advantageous to Ford and his Ontario PC Party.

Doug Ford has a majority government, more than a year before a mandated election call, yet he calls a “snap” election so he can have a mandate to face Donald Trump? According to the latest Conservative ads flooding everywhere, “it’s about the people.” No, Premier, “it’s all about you.” Let’s not be fooled again.
