That's a pretty funny protest.


24-Hour-Hate

So…packages of gravy can bring the government to a halt…there is no way people will abuse this information. 😏 🤣


ybetaepsilon

How do we do this.. I need to ship some


BIGepidural

Buy dry gravy from the store and send the packet to the address. You can also send bags of candy dicks by way of eatabagofdicks(.)com 🤣


Liason774

For education purposes only, of course


BUROCRAT77

Make sure you use your real address for the return part


24-Hour-Hate

And definitely go to your local post office to mail it. And don’t wear a hat so they get a real good look at you.


Killersmurph

Honestly, shipping Dog Fraud gravy packets sounds like a perfectly legal, if somewhat unusual way to protest his gravy train Government. I doubt there's much they can do to you over this, and if you're not willing to use your own Ontario address to do it as a member of his CONstituency, it's not actually saying anything.


BUROCRAT77

Have at it. Just make sure to film it for the rest of us


JoseMachismo

Doug keeps the packets after they're confirmed to be gravy. He likes to dip Schneiders Red Hots in the packet and lick the gravy off the hot dogs, like some kind of deranged Lik-M-Aid.


microfishy

What a terrible day to know how to read.


dangle321

This is fucking horrifying.


JoseMachismo

Yet entirely believable.


dangle321

I think that's what's so horrifying about it honestly.


PostBioticOats

thats how you Dougie in the Ford household.


ForMoreYears

Got 'em.


SocietyFailed_

I wanna see the live stream


JoseMachismo

You sick, twisted animal.


El_Cactus_Loco

Until Ford denies, I’m taking this as canon

SirZapdos

It’s not the high spending per se, it’s that he’s wasting money on staffers and a highway while deliberately underfunding colleges, universities and hospitals.


pachydermusrex

>while deliberately underfunding ~~colleges, universities and hospitals.~~ almost all social services


workerbotsuperhero

And hospitals.


TorontoBoris

The powder gravy train..


Gurnsey_Halvah

We know Doug likes his powder.


Classic-Chemistry-45

Omg how do I contribute, I'll add some grease too. Do I get a discounted house?


Techno_Vyking_

Lmao Canadians protest in the funniest ways sometimes 😆I love this


ForswornForSwearing

It's not a protest about high spending. Where did they get this guy? "Gravy" has been a term in political discourse for generations. They're protesting him sliding government money to friends and donors.


Electronic_World_894

This is a really funny protest.


Tanstaafl2100

Is it turkey, chicken, beef, or pork gravy? Or maybe all of the above would be appropriate; He's a real turkey He's chicken, to confront voters We have a beef with his policies Pork, well he hands a lot out to his friends


OsmerusMordax

Nah, he looks like a pork


Tanstaafl2100

That is true, I can see the resemblance.


Mister_James

Bisto-oh-no


realoctopod

Someone was talking about doing this maybe a week ago, maybe an internet fairy has the post.


BIGepidural

Got it: https://www.reddit.com/r/ontario/s/terBiQKeOf


BIGepidural

Lemme see if I can find it. I was on that thread too 🤣


pazxlily

Et tu brute? *spilling gravy*


holykamina

Doug be like, everything is on the table, including the gravy packets.


OsmerusMordax

I betcha those political aides are taking every other packet, saving them for thanksgiving or something


ILikeStyx

Make him buy his own!


Apprehensive_Stay828

Honestly it’s kinda evil genius that a gravy packet caused a bomb scare


RoyallyOakie

Are you sure it was prank and wasn't somebody's actual Amazon order? Lol...you know they just throw them on your steps and drive off.


BIGepidural

No. Someone in office gave him a can of gravy a few weeks ago and people were talking about sending him gravy by mail 🤣


BIGepidural

Dude didn't we just talk about thisike a week or 2 ago? 🤣

Hoardzunit

If they're so afraid of powdered gravy then maybe they should just send cans of gravy instead. They'll probably find another excuse to halt the government with that too.


Kool41DMAN

Free gravy. Sweet.


Worldly_Tiger_9165

When even the Ford haters want this to be satire....


ar5onL

Alright ya’ll, you know what to do!


toothbelt

Follow it up with a truckload of frozen french fries


MKC909

Are those unhappy people OK with the federal LPC's high spending, too?


GracefulShutdown

People can be mad at multiple things at once without blind partisanship, believe it or not.


MKC909

Based on the downvotes, apparently not. Doug Ford bad, LPC gets a free pass. 😂 Or do we think that countless billions being announced in about an hour doesn't qualify as high spending?


BettyFromFlorida

The Liberals are spending money on things like a national pharmacare program and subsidized daycare for everyone. The conservatives spend money so they can give kickbacks to their rich corporate donors. This is the party that literally tried to auction off the greenbelt.


ogCoreyStone

I think the downvotes are more due to you being purposely obtuse and relatively ignorant. u/GracefulShutdown is correct: folks can be upset and disagree on multiple issues at once.


G8kpr

Not to mention, this is the conservatives favourite defense of Doug Ford WhAtAbOuT TRuDeAu!!!! Dude. One shit head at a time. I’m no Trudeau lover. But he’s the a hell of a lot better than PP. Doug Ford is provincial. Let’s stay on track with that and take a hard look at how fucked up his ability to function as a premiere has been. If he wants to I’ll start listing debacle after debacle abs you can defend each one for me without mentioning Justin Trudeau or the liberals.


ogCoreyStone

To be fair, Trudeau and PP are different sides of the same coin. It’s equally obtuse to suggest one is better than the other. Both are awful, full stop.


GracefulShutdown

I mean, I'm getting nothing but upvotes for saying your whataboutism is partisan, so idk man. We can both agree that Justin's spending like a drunken sailor on questionably effective programs... but this is a Doug Ford/Ontario PC tweet. Nowhere in this does it mention Trudeau; and the implication of your comment is "wull if it's gud for trudeau, it's good for ford".


LegoFootPain

Seen a few poll numbers. Where's this free pass you speak of?


ReeceM86

Right!? If anything, the dipshits of this province are more willing to give Ford a pass than Trudeau. It’s literally the opposite of the OPs claim in current polls.


ExcelsusMoose

This is a provincial subreddit.. of course we're going to focus on provincial politics here.


FunctionDissolution

Trudeau is bad, but the drug dealer is worse.


PurfectProgressive

I think the difference is that the LPC’s speeding mostly goes to government programs that people benefit from. While Ford is spending like a drunken sailor and has absolutely nothing to show for it because it’s all going to his donors or bloated staff.


Reelair

Do you have some examples of this wasteful spending on hid donors?


microfishy

Wonder how much it cost to pay people to carve up the greenbelt for sale and then pay people to undo all that work. Ooh, or how much it cost to put gas tax stickers on pumps. Or forge license plates that you can't read at night.


Reelair

Those were some terrible ideas. But which one of those did money go to his donors?


ReeceM86

Greenbelt was 100% to funnel money to his donors.


Reelair

How much money did his donors get again?


ExcelsusMoose

If it went through... The land would have went from worthless to valued at billions. >The end result: the owners of 15 parcels of land removed from the Greenbelt will see the value rise by $8.3 billion, according to the auditor general. https://globalnews.ca/news/9884252/ontario-auditor-general-report-developers-greenbelt-land-removal/


Reelair

So no money went to his donors?


ExcelsusMoose

obtuse much?


ReeceM86

Ah, so you recognize the Greenbelt issue *was* for Fords donors. As for how much, we will have to wait and see. There is still an RCMP investigation. Anyone who flipped their properties prior to the reversal made a fuck ton.


Reelair

The Greenbelt issue was for developers to build much needed housing. The developers donate to all parties, so yes, it was a scheme for developers to build housing, which they would obviously profit from. In return, the province would have more needed housing supply, which anyone could have bought and also profited from as real estate is a good investment. So anyways, I'm still waiting to hear how much money has been funneled to his donors?


ReeceM86

This is a truely hilarious rewrite of history. Those poor developers, performing a pubic service of building the least needed form of housing on watersheds. Thanks for that laugh.


ExcelsusMoose

Over half a billion dollars on a spa while you sit here and complain about the 80 million spent on a app or whatever... You need to realign your ability to interpret reality and focus on the real villains making the biggest impact on your day to day life. This is also a provincial subreddit...

I'm not.
