“I don’t want to congratulate him for going racist slower than I thought he would, but I guess I am a little impressed.”

Ford and the Ontario PCs unleashed the campaign after polls found that Ontarians were finally starting to realize what a disaster his management of the crisis had been. One attack ad in particular notes that, due to , variants are coming into the country from , Brazil and India.

“You know it took all their will power not to really emphasize the India one,” added Mahnsour.

When asked why Ford showed such unusual restraint one Ford staffer admitted “we didn’t think of it until now.”
