So we're supposed to truck ourselves for an hour or more in a car, at our expense, to spend money in a downtown that we can't afford to live in, so that landlords--who are already rich--can get richer? How about landlords pull themselves up by their bootstraps, stop buying lattes and avocado toast, and cancel their Disney+ subscription?
Also:
Yes, that's exactly what he wants. Ford wants you to be miserable, develop commute related mental health problems, burn through your money buying lunch since you don't have time to make it at home, miss time with your family, gain weight, pollute the atmosphere and then leave at the end of the day be a use you can't afford to live there. All so corporate landlords and restaurant owners can get their God given cut of your money.
Meanwhile, of course, he is whining about the high cost of living while he schemes to increase it for everyone who works at home.
Hmm... I'm starting to get the impression this Doug Ford guy is a bit of a hypocrite....
Amen.
