Ford’s government for the people ! Not only hypocritical, but a deeply felt betrayal and an insult to all Ontarians .

And what other government related buisness has he lied about with regards to TAXPAYER dollars.

They only know how to preach not to follow watch for the lame excuses to follow

ianabailey He has pulled this before-a trip to Switzerland last summer. And re: his jaunt to St. Barts, Ford knew about it. He too has some explaining to do.

Ottawa MAYOR is a LUNATIC and his Rich friend Phillips MUST be FIRED & removed from Ontario Conservative Caucus !!! I wonder if the Ottawa MAYOR is a Conservative with his HANDS in FORD ‘s DEEP Pockets ? OR Maybe just another Ford Rich FRIEND & Edsel politician !!! SO SAD

Of course no mention of Tory defending him

Look at today’s record new cases and It’s Time to Shutdown the Airports & have a TOTAL SHUTDOWN and Fire Phillips the LIAR & CHEATER & Ford & Osterhoff CLOSE

I really hope he has a nice tan for his first TV appearance.

All those who have mistakenly taken a vacation please raise your hands.

Ford: 'Why St Bart's & Switzerland?' Phillips: 'I was scouting expensive villa sites for my pal Morneau for an eventual colony for ex-Finance Ministers'. Ford: 'How is that supposed to make my gloss-over easier?'

Open the province up. People have lost jobs while this putz is taking vacation and being paid. So wrong.

Just resign your seat Rob

It’s one thing when a Canadian accepts the risks for travel, but it only reinforces people’s cynicism for politicians when they preach one thing, do the opposite, and then try and deceive. Ford needs to fire Phillips.

Thousands of people are flying to Mexico, with no requirement for a test before entering JustinTrudeau has been a joke with Covid restrictions, which is wear a mask, and give CRB to foreigners and not Canadians

Should have stayed there. We don’t need moronic hypocrites leading the country. Quota already full.

Since gov clearly doesn't believe their own propaganda its time to open everything up.

At best, Rod Phillips and the other politicians that break their own rules are just stupid, and in that case, why should we listen to them? At worst, it means behind closed doors they’re hearing different things then we’re being told about COVID19 DougFord Toronto Ontario

How can you be an adult and make this bad of a decision He needs to lose his job, he knew exactly what he was doing, being sorry after the fact makes no difference.

Some words from a UK Doctor on people like Phillips, lol

He should not be returning to a job There is no reason at all we should all stay locked down in our homes if politicians are on beaches onpoli fordnation CivilAdvantage1
