“We're gonna bring auditors into the cities to make sure that, what they say they're doing, they're doing,” Ford told the Mississauga Board of Trade Wednesday

“We're gonna bring auditors into the cities to make sure that you know, what they say they're doing, they're doing,” Ford told the Mississauga Board of Trade Wednesday in a question session following a speech he delivered to the group. “And if you have a shortfall, we'll cover you. But let's all work together and get these housing projects started.

Housing Minister Steve Clark has indicated the province will help municipalities make up the shortfall but has saidCritics have charged that the province is taking money out the pockets of already cash-strapped cities in order to pay for a housing plan which gives breaks to developers. While it’s true that Rob Ford managed to save the city hundreds of millions of dollars in his term, city staff later clarified that his predecessor, David Miller, had done so as well.

and Toronto Mayor John Tory has warned that the further loss of revenue from development charges represents a significant threat to Toronto’s finances.

So more spending from a conservative government to assert their control over other elected bodies

This Wall St. Wannabe joke is totally in the developers' pockets. Way to go Ontario

They should bring auditors to queens park and make the checks on fordnation and his business. dimebagdoug onpoli

The only gravy train the POS Ford brothers found was running through their family business.

Where is the transparency on how Ford horded federal transfers for Universal health care?

Hey! Everybody can just shut up and do what Doug says, no matter how stupid and inefficient it is. Oh, and only some developers get these breaks? Wait'll the rest get a load of that. And if they do, then property tax is going up all over ON - and developers who already invested?

By too many employees!

Obviously threatening Crombie cause she didn’t fall down with praise for his greenbelt plan. Next he’ll be criticizing the sound of her voice . Andrea H. will advise no doubt

In 2010-14, Doug and his brother Rob brought in auditors to find 'efficiencies, duplication, waste....'. None of subsequence was found.... what did occur was the elimination of services which were then attributed as 'efficiencies, duplication, waste'. A 3-card Monte hussle.

Hey Tory Doug’s going to throw you under the bus to save his own skin and deflect his highly suspicious activities. What are you going to do about it or are you going to wear your school boy pants. Step up he gave you Greater Mayoral Powers.

You don’t think you should be investigated?You let death walk right into our healthcare system you starved them of funds and I heard reallocated Covid healthcare funds I read 4.2B meant to boost healthcare services. The greenbelt, anyone have anything else….

Can’t wait to see my conservative mayor have to wear Ford’s incompetence 😂

What about auditing OHIP? Based on Alberta experience there is probably millions being paid to useless friends of friends who do nothing. CORRUPTION

Auditors and forensic accountants should be looking into how the 3 Conservative Govt, 2 Liberals spent Ontario Taxpayer money. what they did, what they didn't do right, wrong, or criminal. are there any nefarious heinous shenanigans going on?

Does that include him?
