As I'm sure you know, I have always believed that the Con clown Doug Ford is totally unfit to be the Premier of Canada's largest and most powerful province.
And the pandemic has made it even clearer that he doesn't know what he is doing.
But yesterday the bloated buffoon hit a new low on the Con scale of incompetence.
With a Con clown comedy show that wasn't funny, but was truly scary.
First Ford sent out his hapless health minister Christine Elliott to get her first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine, to try to counter vaccine hesitancy.
Only to have this happen.
Canada's National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) is recommending provinces pause the use of the AstraZeneca-Oxford COVID-19 vaccine on those under the age of 55 because of safety concerns — guidance most provinces said today that they would follow.
The change comes following reports out of Europe of very rare instances of blood clots in some immunized patients — notably among younger women.
But 300,000 of these shots have been administered in Canada already, with no reports of blood clots here, officials said.
And have Ford give vaccine hesitancy its biggest boost ever...
Here is Ontario Premier Doug Ford saying he'd "rather wait, if it means a month or two months, for Pfizer and Moderna and J&J, than roll the dice on AZ"
But he contends that no who also already gotten AZ has rolling the dice #cdnpoli #onpoli https://t.co/94eP8GYBnx pic.twitter.com/kUYPXTp8l6
Did you know, on this day in 1848, Niagara Falls’ water flow came to a halt for 2 days due to ice blockages?

Sadly, photos of the event are not available, but we can only imagine how quiet it must have been without the thunderous sound of the falls. #NiagaraFallsRunsDryDay pic.twitter.com/Ac9f1ckEfq
Only to be made to look like an ignorant idiot. Again...
For months @fordnation has insisted there are no vaccines and yesterday he tweeted saying there are no pictures of that time Niagara Falls froze over.

.@MichelleRempel Garner is right, Canada needs a reopening plan. It's time for the Liberals to get on with it.https://t.co/lIghZy1mFW

Dug must have turned on the egg beater too high making that cheesecake batter, because he's got egg all over his face with today's announcement from PMJT and Min. Anand. Pfizer is accelerating their deliveries, and J&J shipments should come in by the end of next month. As it is, Ontario already has hundreds of thousands sitting in freezers, so with literally millions more on the way, what's Drug Fraud going to complain about now?
The press is corrupt and won't hold him to account, as evidenced by the not-so-covert coziness between Lilley and Dug's chief of staff. Her name is Ivana -- you can't make this up. If Katie Telford was having an affair with anyone from CBC or the Star, the PPG would burn the entire Liberal government down. I mean look at the howling they did for months over poor Margaret Trudeau, and Skippy and Charlie are still pursuing that crap. But because it's Dug and the MSM are sympathetic to cons, it's NBD. One of the few outlets to even bother covering the Brivana story was some crank talk radio host named Dean Blundell, whose blog has its own fake news problem of conspiracy theories about the Trudeaus' marriage. When that guy is saying that the "official" news is crooked, they really should rethink their life. But they won't.
Dug continues to preside over a den of thieves and blame the feds with little to no pushback from the media stooges, while the Ontario government's science advisory panel now says the province has let COVID spiral "out of control." He's deliberately starving ONDP- and OLP- (or LPC-) friendly areas of vaccine supply, and saying it's all Trudeau's fault while his fat ass continues to sit on them. It's just the same thing that the orangutan-in-chief did to Democratic "blue states" with PPE and later vaccines, to punish them for not voting for him. Don't go chasing waterfalls, Dougie. Please stick to the dope dealing and Frito-eating you're used to.
Someone needs to stick a proverbial firecracker up his province-sized wazoo, and get Dug the Thug out of office before he turns an entire province into a burial ground. He already failed at making sticky labels, which is the only other thing besides grifter populist politics that he's ever done in his pathetic life. Now he's managed to fuck up the one main "career skill" that was ever in his wheelhouse -- distributing drugs!!!
A place to die, where mutations grow... Ontari-ari-arioooo...
Simon. Love you but I hope the left's rhetoric stays sharp and true, my friend. After all, reality does have a liberal bias.
But that photo is not from 1848. It is from 1911. Minor details, but, let's stick to the factual errors they make (hourly) and not make our own which only allows them to "both sides" us.
1848 photograph, if they exist, (unlikely) would be so blurry from the hours of film exposure needed to affix the image as to be almost indecipherable in the flat light and shade context of Barney's photo.
It was last Friday when Duhg once again bemoaned the myth that he needs more vaccines while hundreds of thousands are sitting in freezers. It's a joke he said and I agree. He is a joke and his false narrative that he's perpetually out of vaccines. Another attempt to deflect blame for his incompetence and what does our Liberal government do to counter his lies? Nothing that I'm aware of and I've been looking but so far crickets. That is even more infuriating to me because JT is basically letting Duhg, the tool, Moe, Pallister and Kenney punch him in the head repeatedly without defending himself. You know what they say and how it worked for Trump. If you repeat a lie enough times people will start to believe it. Same applies here. JT has to meet these lies head on by way of spokesperson or himself because sure as shit the media wont. I wont hold my breath though because as Dale Smith keeps saying and I agree, the Liberals couldn't communicate their way out of a Gods damned wet paper bag. Well, they better learn quickly or we will end up as another failed state under Erin the tool, Justice Minister Peewee, Health Minister Rempel, Finance Minister MAGA Bergen, Immigration Minister Schmeer, etc. etc. etc.

I would like getting drunk every day and live in Okalaoma, and make 200K a year.
Ontario reformatories can't make vaccinations keep up with supply now. How big will the stockpile be in June with millions of doses delivered?
The feds should be considering plans for distribution based on performance not simply on population. If other provincial health departments are more efficient than Ontario's, they should take precidence.
Like all Cons, Dougie has a nasty habit of scoring goals against his own team. In this instance his comments about the AZ vaccine are relatively minor and perhaps indicates that the government would be willing to give people a choice on the type of vaccine they receive rather than keep it a secret until the needle is about to go into the arm. Although suppression of the pandemic in the UK clearly supports the benefits of the AZ vaccine, many people in Canada are hesitant to receive it due to flip flops over age brackets as well as the lingering story about its lack of effectiveness against the South African variant. Rather than force people to make a choice between vax or no vax it make sense to treat them as rational adults and give them a choice of vaccine type. Its the only viable option in today's information environment as persuasion is not workable and conscription is not on the table at least for now!

FYI or perhaps you are aware - wouldn't it be lovely to be rid of PP? https://mobile.twitter.com/carleton4change
Hi Jackie....Doug Ford has never looked like more of a fraud. I can't decide whether he is just trying to cover-up his murderous incompetence or trying to use the vaccine issue to feed his anti-Trudeau base. Or both. But Anita Anand and all the others on Team Canada are doing a terrific job, and according to the latest Abacus poll (out tomorrow) Canadians are noticing. So that walking cheesecake will only look worse as time goes on. As for the Lilley scandal, I am disgusted by the way our shabby Con media is avoiding the story, but it only confirms what I have always said about them. They are also the scum of the earth, and their day of reckoning will also be brutal...
Hi Brian....I interpreted Ford's comment to mean that there were no pictures of the frozen falls. So if the falls were also frozen over in 1910 I think it makes him look even dumber. But then of course I'm biased... ;)
Hi JD....I am also sometimes frustrated by the way the Trudeau government doesn't send a demolition team after the Cons to blow up all their lies. But I think most Canadians are getting the message, and as more people get vaccinated the pathetic lies of the Cons will become even more obvious. Also remember that the more they attack the decent Trudeau the more they can hurt themselves. Stephen Harper and Andrew Scheer found that out too late to save themselves, and I think that O'Toole is about to learn the same lesson. This is not Republican America, it's good old Canada...
Hi Steve...I don't drink, living in Oklahoma is the stuff of nightmares, and 200K is not enough to risk bumping into Michelle Rempel...;)
Hi rumleyfips...I must admit that I am also worried about the growing stockpile of vaccines. Vaccinating people in a country as big as Canada was never going to be easy. But Ford has never looked more like a moron. A lot of people are working their butts off to get those vaccines to us, and Ford is letting them down as well as the rest of us....
Hi RT....I spent over half an hour on the phone recently trying to convince a friend's grandmother in a nursing home to get vaccinated. And Doug Ford's careless statement just blew all that work out of the water. Vaccine hesitancy is a huge problem, and the buffoon needs to measure his words more carefully. And if he can't do that, let his medical staff answer those kind of questions. The AZ vaccine is still good, it's still a big part of our vaccine strategy, and scaring even older Canadians is absolutely idiotic...
Hi unknown....Not only did I tweet something about the ghastly Poilievre calling for a reopening plan even as ICU admissions in Ontario have never been higher, I followed you. Good luck with your noble quest to get rid of that scummy Con...
Simon what you said makes me feel so cheap, like I married a rich replicant
so I could drink better wine. I used the tool of resentment politics in a bad way. I feel like a con now.
Now we're going back to lockdown on Sat. I guess Friday was a nono to appease his religious pals and allow for some Easter CoVID Spreading, er, services.
Last year, it really hurt to praise the guy because he surprised the hell out of me and did the right thing but it was earned.
Now? I just wished he ignored the business owners and his Christian Fundamentalist base and listened to the health professionals.
Hi Steve....I would never accuse you of being a Con. All I’m saying is that I’m not judgemental, so if you want to move to Oklahoma and get drunk with Michelle Rempel I won’t hold it against you..😉
Hi Dan....Once again the Ford regime is locking down way too late and in my opinion not enough. In Scotland my parents can’t visit nearby towns and police enforce quarantine orders, just like the army did in Australia. We need to understand that we are at war, and unless we really crack down on the virus it could become even more dangerous, and sicken and kill even more people. I realize that the economic effects are causing terrible suffering, and I feel for those affected. But as I said, we’re in a war and if we don’t fight it like a war we are never going to beat the virus...
