Premier Ford: Why Are You Always Protecting The Lawbreakers?


 Premier Ford, once again you have chosen to protect the criminals and punish those who oppose you.

Speed cameras work!

Every ticket issued is because the vehicle has exceeded the posted speed limit, including the “threshold” allocated before the issuance of said ticket.

Simply put, the operator of the vehicle has BROKEN THE LAW!

You claim it is merely the municipalities committing a “cash grab”.

I disagree.

IT IS A FINE, A PUNISHMENT FOR EXCEEDING THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT.

NOT TO MENTION THAT TWENTY-FOUR PERCENT OF THE GENERATED REVENUE GOES TO THE PROVINCE AND THE REMAINING SEVENTY-SIX PERCENT GOES TO THE OPERATION OF THE TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT SYSTEMS!

You neglect to mention that in the past three years vehicles assigned to the Ford government have been caught 23 times by automated speed cameras and 12 times by the vehicle’s internal system.

Incidents that have resulted in over $3,300 in fines for YOUR government.

One of your vehicles had registered at the stunt driving speed of 162 km/h!!!

Another one of YOUR government vehicles registered 70 km/h in a 40 km/h zone.

There have also been numerous “stunt driving” notifications triggered by the vehicle’s internal monitoring systems in non-camera locations.

Your office response to the driver caught stunt driving was “it will never happen again”. (The same driver is still employed by your government).

You are willing to endanger every single person in Ontario rather than punish those who put all of us in danger.

Signage will not stop speeders!

If it would then the big sign posting the speed limit would slow these drivers down.

Letting drivers know what the allotted “speed camera thresholds” are will merely allow these reckless drivers to maintain a speed “over the limit” but “under the threshold”.

They will still be speeding!

Which I am sure you know is breaking the law.

I realize that you rarely walk anywhere and are not familiar with the danger being a pedestrian in Ontario often poses.

I live near Coxwell Avenue in Toronto. From my balcony I can see one of those signs that shows drivers what their vehicle’s speed is.

The posted speed in this neighbourhood is 40 km/h. The average speed of vehicles passing the sign is 50 plus km/h.

Premier Ford,  speeding is speeding.

SIMPLE AS THAT!

Every ticket issued is because the operator of the vehicle is breaking the law!

Fining them is the only way to drive the point home!

Personally I think that the fines should be far higher and the  threshold should be 5 km/h over the limit.

Your reasoning will allow these careless drivers to speed on every street in the province.

As a comparison, your reasoning would be the same as saying one punch in the mouth is not an assault.

You can put as many and as large signage wherever you wish. Like I previously said, if signage worked then these reckless drivers would be doing the posted speed limit.

Do you disagree?

IT WILL NOT STOP THESE RECKLESS DRIVERS WHO KNOW THEY WILL NOT BE PUNISHED!

KEEP THE CAMERAS!

IF YOU CARED ABOUT THE CITIZENS OF ONTARIO YOU WOULD DEMAND THAT THEY ARE INSTALLED IN ALL ONTARIO CITIES! 

SPEEDERS ARE LAWBREAKERS – STOP REWARDING AND ENCOURAGING THEM!!!

Court still prohibits marijuana possession

Court still prohibits marijuana possession Shannon Kari, National Post Published: Thursday, December 11, 2008 The prohibition against simple possession of marijuana has been upheld by an Ontario Superior Court judge, in a closely watched case that stemmed from the prosecution of Clifford Long, who was arrested by Toronto police with $40 worth of cannabis. Justice Eva Frank overturned a decision by a lower court judge last year that found there was no valid restriction against possession of cannabis because of flaws with the country's medical marijuana regulations. The lower court decision led to confusion about prosecuting simple possession cases in Ontario, said the federal government in its arguments before Judge Frank earlier this year. The federal Crown argued that the present policies of Health Canada have resulted in enough marijuana for the nearly 2,000 people with medical certificates to possess the drug. Judge Frank agreed with the arguments made by federal government lawy...

LIVE IN THE NOW. FOR NOW

  “ Look up into the Universe and show your perception of your God that you are grateful and humbled for this gift of existence, of life it very self. “ Remember, we are merely mortal and our existence is an ever changing blueprint of the pathway we choose to walk at this moment of our lives. We will face many choices and we walk many pathways   as we wander through this road we call “ life “. “ We are genetically spiritually nomadic. “ Forever seeking the “ why “, “ where ” and “when”, often neglecting the “ here “, “ now ” and “ why not “ The past has left us. The future is yet to arrive. In reality, we live right now. Enjoy the  “now”. Think fondly about the past. Have positive hope for tomorrow. And ……….. “ LIVE ” in the now Before it fades I nto the past. (LDV 06/29/2025) “Positivity is Cancer’s nemesis.”

  Musk is dangerous and is definitely a “ wolf in sheep’s clothing “. Elon “ Teslaboy ” Musk His warped intelligence and well known use of ketamine has enabled him to turn his greatest fan,  Donald J. Trump , into his personal political puppet. Trump believes that he is controlling Musk. However it is quite the contrary! DICTATOR DONALD  TRUMP Trump is blinded by Musk’s wealth. He believes that by befriending him he will reach the same level of riches. I strongly doubt that will ever be a reality. Yes, Trump is often referred to as a “ brilliant ” businessman. But is he really? Trump’s riches come from a very long list of bankruptcies and shifty business transactions. He is well known for simply refusing to pay his debts. He also owes numerous Russian Oligarchs billions of dollars for failed Trump Tower projects. Including the shady Moscow Towers project and the Trump Towers Toronto. The latter which was bankrupt before completion. Which lead to Trump obtaining financing ...
