The York Region local of the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario paid for a protest sign that read ‘Public education cannot afford Ford’

MARKHAM, Ont. — A teachers’ union representative claiming responsibility for an anti-Ford sign that flew over Ford Fest said he had to hire an American company because the Canadian one he approached refused to participate.

Saturday’s free-to-the-public event came as the Progressive Conservative government faced a slump in the polls and Ford’s personal popularity has taken a hit in the wake of a budget that contained many cuts that proved unpopular. Clegg said he put a lot of thought into how to send a simple message that all Ford Fest attendees would see, calling it a “geographical challenge.” He ultimately thought that it would be most effective to have the sign flown over the fairgrounds instead of having it by the roadway as people drove in.

This is pro PC capitalism

Ridiculous

Research if the Canadian company that refused attended $1500 plate PC fundraisers.
