I am somewhat surprised that it's the supposedly conservative Ford government that is introducing this "punishment".

Next thing you know, they'll prohibit stealing cars altogether if the thief is carrying a weapon... and it will undoubtedly be the Liberals' fault.

I am afraid this one makes JT's governing brilliant in comparison. Talk about wasting taxpayer's money...

JT's the reason we have this theft crap in the first place, DF doesn't have much he can do given criminal code and ports are both federal responsibilites.

Nice try. The people in charge of catching car thieves are not funded by the feds.

Funny how the goalposts keep changing. Have you ever heard of the straw man fallacy / argument? We're talking about the idiotic license suspension for violent car thieves law... please defend it and the government that passed it.

When they get let out on bail the very same day, it basically doesn't matter if you're catching them....

We all know you're a left wing nut swinger here...

Point remains, the entire car theft problem is a result of federal policies (amongst most of the problems this country is having), hence why it's not limited to Ontario.

Fvck no. Center right maybe, but definitely not left.
The point remains that when JT screws up (and even when he doesn't), all of you right-wing nuts are crying bloody murder. When a conservative leader and government makes an idiotic decision, it's everyone else's fault but theirs. Sorry, but that's too much hypocrisy to swallow and exactly why the PC feds won't get elected (and DF is going to lose just like Kathleen did). Man the fvck up and let's call a spade a spade. The first politician to show any brain activity above the medulla gets my vote irrespective of where they stand politically.

You know how I know you're delusional? When you think the party currently polling with an over 99.9% chance of getting a majority won't get elected.

I did a poll and a computer simulation that showed that I had a 100% chance of winning the lottery if my numbers came up, but I did not win. Apparently unlike you, at least I have the ability to apply reason and logic.

P.S. And, if I am delusional, maybe you can explain to us why is DF already running attack ads against Bonnie when there's no election on the horizon for another two years?

Odd. I'm center left, and I think for a conservative, he's doing a good job. He's even getting along with Olivia. Speaking of Olivia, I'm impressed, certainly compared to the empty suit before her. She must have been the force behind Jack
