Bad provincial Liberal legacy (the Libs were in a VERY long time). The McGuinty decision to cancel hydro plants in Oakville and Mississauga to save a couple of seats really did the party in (although given they were going to be natural gas plants, it was likely a fortuitous cancellation). And the Libs haven’t had an effective leader since Wynn. Crombie has been all but invisible since becoming the Lib leader.
Ford is likely corrupt. He’s not that bright. But he’s an amazing retail politician who runs more as an old PC-style leader than a hardcore Conservative. In Ontario that works.
