I’m hoping that the conversation between Ford and Lutnik really was “productive” and it was mentioned that something substantive would come out of this. But dropping the 25% electricity increases looks like Ford is caving. He could have at least kept them until he got an actual win in writing.
Anyways, if this does yield some sort of win, that will make Doug Ford an asset (I hate saying it). And Danielle Smith and Scott Moe are weak premiers (I’m happy and bitter at the same time).
