I'm in Ontario. General sentiment is that he didn't completely crater the COVID response (not great but passable) and booted the nutjobs out. That made a big difference.
This most certainly isn't an endorsement of Ford, though. Ontario is coasting on a great economy at the moment and Ford has a 'Dad' reputation to him at the moment.
If this was two years ago it would have been ugly for him. People are a bit complacent at the moment, hence low voter turnout.
