Ford said he offered her family a state funeral and is in the midst of consultations with Mississauga Mayor Bonnie Crombie to finalize next steps. “It's going to be an incredible celebration,” Ford said.
In tribute to McCallion, he recounted the values that characterized her 36 years as mayor of Mississauga, marking her as the longest serving mayor in the city’s history. “There's no politician in the country that really understood the grassroots of the people more than Hazel did,” Ford said. “It was all about the people and listening to the people,” Ford said, calling her commitment to her community “second to none.”
Mississauga and Ontario are better places because of the amazing life of Hazel McCallion. Rest easy, my friend.
No thanks. I try to avoid Ford’s voice whenever possible.😏

Premier Doug Ford remembers his friend and mentor Hazel McCallionAt the request of the family, I announce with a heavy heart, the passing of my dear friend and mentor, Hazel McCallion. Hard pass. Not to speak ill of the dead; but, in the 1990’s, when she was the mayor of Mississauga (and Doug may have still been selling hashish) and I was working with a real estate developer, I had several interactions with Hazel and I know and witnessed her corruption. Who cares.
