Doug Ford has big goals but cares about small stuff, colleagues say.

The Progressive Conservative leader is a self-proclaimed visionary who makes decisions with his gut.

When he has swung and missed, like he did with opening up protected Greenbelt land that sparked public furor, has apologized and walked it back.

Doug Ford has no fear of backtracking, says former labour minister Monte McNaughton .

Ford has spent more than any previous premier, but will not raise taxes.

He has tried to woo the working class in an effort to create a “conservative blue-collar coalition’s” effort.

Ford is not a typical conservative; he flies right up the centre, Waler says.

Ford has long envisioned an end-to-end manufacturing chain for electric vehicles within Ontario .

The Ford government has signed deals with several First Nations in the area, which are leading environmental assessments for three planned roads.

“Somebody is trying to colonize you from the other side,” Mamakwa said.
