OUSTED MPP HILLIER OPINES ON FORD'S FUTURE

“(Ford) came into office with a truckload of old scores to settle, grudges and axes to grind. Public office is not for the advancement of your own personal vendettas.”

Like the sudden shrinking of Toronto city council, for instance — Ford had been a councillor — about which nothing was discussed during the campaign. Or buck-a-beer or new provincial slogans, or pulling a new OPP commissioner out of a hat.

Hillier is convinced the Ford government was being led by a trio of backroom operators, principally chief of staff Dean French, with whom he had a rather bitter public dispute. Hillier blamed French and other top insiders for trying to turn caucus members into trained seals who were required to clap, cheer and tweet enthusiastically on command.
