Ontario Premier Doug Ford says there is 'nothing wrong with golfing' and that it's the 'mobility' before and after that’s the problem.

You can say beer my guy 🤣🤣 he sounds like a real reserved Aunt 🤣
Trying to appeal to the zoomers and boomers
He’s a clown
@Scoot Boot I disagree
Most clowns are not morbidly obese
Lol for all his “buck-a-beer” talk, big Dougie doesn’t drink… His brother’s old crack stash may be a different story tho, based on his craziness!!
I know right lol 😆🤣
Roughly 6700 yards per 18 holes but nobody can socially distance themselves…. outside, in the summer.
@Aluba Banana you are scared aren’t you?
It is probably the most socially distant game ever. I’m pretty disappointed in Ford.
You be quiet and get in line to go cram into Costco.
@None of your business go pass grade 1 please.
@Aluba Banana 🐑
That’s pretty funny he says they aren’t asking for a lot when we’ve been in lockdown for months and months straight…
“All I’m asking is for you to give up your freedoms and financial security. Is that too much to ask?” Multi-Millionaire Doug Ford
Don’t worry though, just 2 more weeks……………
@M. A. herd immunity. Stop the obsession with ‘cases’. Shield the elderly, and those afraid can stay indoors. Life has risks
@M. A. Read what you just wrote, think about it, if you can. “if you like to complain about lockdowns please provide an alternative solution other than no lockdowns.”
You just said “If you like to complain about lockdowns please provide an alternative solution other than alternative solutions”
Big brain.. such big brain.
@Neags Oh OK I get it. Keep everything open, let the cases grow and overwhelm the healthcare system. Smart!
This guy said were not asking a lot lmao
But maybe correct spelling could be a start.
JUST A COUPLE MORE WEEKS, AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA, is he hitting his brothers crack pipe? This has been the longest two weeks in history
Why not he’s been stealing his money
They said lockdown for 2 weeks over a year ago lol
hes been hitting fat lines since march 2020
he found some of Rob’s stash xDD
@Scoot Boot We want everyone drugged up said the Kentucky Derby winner lol.
Just say no to drugs as we see the horses shooting in an alley.
I forgot to add – I see he’s been to the barber🤨, let them eat cake….🤣
Yes, his friends!!! Surprise!!!
Although, he’s almost back to sounding sincere again. 2 weeks to flatten the curve.
20 yrs later………….
2 weeks to flatten the curve was inaccurate, but to be fair if we had a lockdown like nz or austrailia we would be fine rn
@Braedanator If you were an island you would be fine too.
A serious level of fairness is needed Inplay now like yesterday we are all the same or nobody is no one ,pick one and don’t forget it
He says they aren’t asking a lot, just a “couple more weeks?”… Until the end of summer where a new variant of covid comes out and we’re under lockdown again and Ford repeat his same speech on how “we need to be vigilant” and just “a few more weeks again folks”….
and sells another million worth of stickers
Hey Buddy, 15 days to stop the spread is all anyone is asking for. This will all be sorted out before the end of April of 2020.
Sure keep abusing doctors and nurses. Keep those ICUs full and keep wearing those stupid masks. If you don’t take COVID seriously you’ll continue to pay a heavy price in terms of loss of livelihood and life
You noticed the Trend
@j2simpso At this point, I will gladly settle for watching the world burn. Then, and only then, will we all truly be in this together.
Now we are blaming the “pops”. Science 🙌🏻
I love science!!
Coronas likely 😉
never thought i’d live to hear such fkn nonsense.. pops.. smfh
Bro, it’s TO Gslang for Blunts mixed in with Rock for ‘seasoning’:)
@Robert MacNaughton I did not know that. Thank you.
He’s doing such a great job of tanking his career
Not sure why he thinks he has a shot at reelection.
@j2simpso the increase of mental health and adults is on him and his asinine decisions
@Rusty Shackleford I think you meant to say cake
@Riley Daniels
No. He does cake
@Donicka Budd I agree that these restrictions are awful as are the many thousands of Ontarians who have died from this preventable disease. All I’m asking is can we for once eliminate the virus from our communities rather than saying we just want to get it to a managable level? We’ve tried that for months now and it hasn’t worked. We get it down to hundreds of cases then the sucker keeps creeping up to a thousand then many thousands and bam another set of restrictions.
So he has no problem with golf, he just has a problem with enjoyment.
“jUsT a cOuPlE mOrE wEeKs”.
I think he has a problem with alcohol. Perhaps he is an alcoholic
Yes. You can enjoy later. Grow up, get a different hobby
Meanwhile the rest of the world is back to normal we are held hostage
@jman22shl I guess I look at how full a glass is of the 161m cases the world has a 98.1% recovery rate
There are fatalities agreed and the virus is real no question some get very sick but 98% recover
@jman22shl you are dreaming if you think hiding at home from a virus will stop it. It will still be there in two more weeks. Just need to face it, catch it, hope you aren’t the .01 % who dies and then move on…
Therer should be a report option for spreading false information like pete did
@luke Pretty sure no one cares about the Indians.
@B1 Laxson No,hes right.
From the Premier’s statement he should be closing the Beer stores and opening the golf courses! The problem seems to be his buddy’s having “A Few Pops” not the golf course being open.
the beer stores aren’t the problem, Doug’s friend are.
Who are his friends, is this where he is getting his advice.
@Na Na sounds like his friends are the ones that f****** everybody up
@Blank Space Provided So punish golfers instead?? Brilliant logic you got there…
No rationality, no data, nothing from him, just an statement totally out of logic, I thing he is going again the economic and well being
I believe we now are the only region in the world that has closed golf courses, amongst all the other “illegal” outdoor activities we can no longer participate in.
Can’t afford to live in the city where I wouldn’t be able to afford doing any of the things I’d want to do even if they were open and available
@Chemical Imbalance the sad thing is this isn’t the worst its going to get.
“We aren’t asking a lot” understatement of the last 400 days of 15 to flatten the curve.
Agreed. Ontario needs to lockdown hard and make this the last time restrictions are put into Ontario. We’ve already paid a lot in terms of lives lost from COVID and livelihood from businesses, schools and society being cancelled for the past year.
Blue Jays are finally flatten the curve 3 more wins straight against the Atlanta Braves.
@j2simpso Lockdowns don’t work. Ask South Korea and New Zealand.
You gotta give Doug some credit. He has gotten pretty far with just a grade 12 education. Image what he could have done with grade 13!
Its to bad ricky couldnt get past his grade 10. He wouldve made a great premier.
Truth to be told, hard to believe that he’s the Ford brother without a drug problem
Real Pig!
@K DANIEL Osmond had talent though.
Great premier
If he asks for more weeks, there should be a team of Canadians on site ready to slap him sideways about 8 or 9 times, just so he can reconsider his ideas. Then he is free to continue his speech.
Don’t worry, kids…just 3 or 4 MORE lockdowns until Christmas. 🎄🎅🏻🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻🎄🎅🏻🎄
They can only implement Emergency Measures TEMPORARILY. I would say the time has come to drop them. This can’t go on.
Don’t listen to him and his bullsh!t anymore, trust me it’s so so liberating.
@ShizNick I wish I could do that as well, but he makes the rules!! Even if you ignore him, what he says, goes. Democracy!🤔😐
