Ontario’s premier has a sign for his preferred candidate in the front yard of his Etobicoke home, but says he’s prepared to “come up with common ground” with front-runner Olivia Chow if she wins.
Ford confirmed he has a Saunders sign on his front lawn in Etobicoke and would be casting his ballot next Monday for the former police chief in Toronto’s mayoral byelection.. I have the right, like anyone else, to put a sign on my lawn,” the premier told reporters Tuesday in Carp, a rural part of Ottawa.
“I put Mark’s sign on my lawn and proud to have his sign on the lawn,” said Ford two days after the Toronto Sun reported on the blue and white sign. “But again, I tell everyone, I’ll be voting for Mark but vote whoever you want to vote for. That’s your choice. That’s not up to me or anyone else to tell you who to vote for,” he said.Saunders, who ran for Ford’s Progressive Conservatives in Don Valley West in last year’s provincial election,“I’m glad to have his vote. I encourage everyone in Toronto who doesn’t want Olivia Chow to be the mayor to vote for me. United, we can stop Olivia Chow,” he said.
That’s a reference to Horwath, the former NDP leader who is now the mayor of Hamilton, and Del Duca, the former Liberal leader who is now the mayor of Vaughan. While they were tough opponents of the Tory premier in their previous roles, they have partnered with his government in recent months on shared priorities.
