so, doug ford says he needs to bring in fascist laws to "protect the public" because "people won't listen to health experts".

let's think this through for a minute.

if i make a decision, as an autonomous individual, and it's different than the one doug ford would make, doug ford thinks he has the right to send somebody with a gun up in my face to force me to conform to his beliefs and values, explicitly because i happen to have made a decision he disagrees with. 

it's his words - he thinks disagreeing with the government is grounds for the government to push people around.

welcome to canada, where democracy is just a lot of empty platitudes, and you'll do what you're told whether you like it or not.

i guess?

not so fast - we can still disobey, at least for now, and i behoove the young people of this country to mobilize out on the streets while you still can.

because doug ford has made himself clear - he's coming for your rights. 

to "protect the public". right.
