Ontario Government (Conservative majority), 2025-29

IMHO, that’s the same thinking that turned 24 Sussex into the country’s largest crack house.

I’m of the opinion that the government’s executives of large land masses may need air transport not governed by the whims and schedules of commercial airlines.

If I see a premier or minister in cattle class with me while on official business, I’m going to have a very low opinion of the government.

Politicians should have those discussions and debates and move forward. Not do things in shadows then flinch when they're brought to light.

Strange that people would heavily scrutinize the guy currently in the process of trying to pass legislation entirely for the purpose of protecting himself.

Ford says no one in Canada is scrutinized like he is after backtracking on $28.9M private jet purchase​

So, we asked the Quebec government about the jets Ford was referring to — and whether the Quebec government owns a private plane for the premier’s travel needs.

There is no government plane for the premier’s exclusive travel, according to a spokesperson for the premier’s office. They said the jets Ford was referring to are used for medical transport.

The medical jets are highly specialized aircraft designed to transport patients living in remote communities to medical facilities.

A 2025 call for tenders detailed the specifications the Quebec government had for one of its new private jets: it says the plane must be modified to include a medical ramp and other specialized medical equipment

In 2024, a Quebec coroner found that the province had an insufficient number of medical aircraft.

Stay classy Doug Ford.
