Fucking horrific. This happens far too often, and Doug Ford doesn't care.

I'm far from being a Ford fan, but what does he have to do with this horrific accident?

He's quite literally removing safe infrastructure from people who aren't in cars, with a rule that his government can't be sued when someone is killed as a result.

Crashes like this are a consequence of a government who doesn't value human life.
