I’ll never forget that the Ford government killed paid sick days in the middle of a pandemic

The other people who resigned weren’t fully resigning - they were just stepping down from Cabinet, but staying in government. McNaughton is exiting government altogether.

Good riddance I say. I remember his leadership race and how he ran as the social-conservative candidate.

The ship is on fire and a few of the sailors are preemptively jumping overboard while they still can … because eventually the crew will be ordered below deck at one point to save an unsaveable ship even as the captain knows everything is going down.

I’m curious to see how they handle this departure geographically. He was the only member of Cabinet west of London, and typically you have at least one Minister from South-Southwestern Ontario.
