Politicians don’t deserve “credit” for reversing a ####-up.

This is all true. But GGG is right as well - once he makes the mistake - he can either continue on with it - have kids miss school, have potentially a general strike, etc or you can admit you effed up and get on with business.

Ford is willing to change course so people see him as a sensible guy who won't derail the province by going off on pointless battles about expired vaccine mandates, high five convoy people or come up with snazzy slogans about inflation. Basically he doesn't do grievance politics that trips up other Conservative parties in Canada.

I don't vote for him, but he avoid the 'anyone but conservative' voting that happens Federally.
