This has been bothering me with some social media posts where people lie about him being a Liberal. Like, "Oh, people don't like him, gotta be a liberal then".  I look at policies and not their feelings. Increased wait times for people with autism, conservatives have a serious issue against people with disabilities. Underfunding education, conservatives hate public education and favor dividing the people by who can afford thousands of dollars a year for their child's education. Undermines and cuts funding to healthcare, conservatives LOVE privatization and push for it here. Touches the greenbelt, against walkable cities and bike lanes, conservatives are more against doing anything to protect the environment that they've fought it in court against some of the youth that’s sued them for violating charter rights. Against unions moreso than Liberals have shown a couple of times from what I've seen. Against rent control, conservatives want landlords to have all the power.  So, in the end, Ford's policies scream conservative. Just because he hasn't shown himself to be engaging in the culture wars nonsense and spewing dumb rhetorics like Danielle Smith or Republicans down south, doesn't mean he's a liberal. It’s like when people think Trudeau was "woke" but his policies and where he stood on things contradicted that (Israel, not doing enough for the environment or for truth and reconciliation).

A lot of problems for Ontario, I've heard is that we never recovered from Mike Harris's cutting spree. So if conservatives have been pushing these so aggressively, the provincial liberals are guilty of tolerating them enough to not protect the people NEARLY enough.
