High school drop out and former hash dealer. Embarrassing.

All I want for Christmas is a marginally electable opposition candidate.

They are, just convince your non-voting friends to get their heads out of their asses

Saw him and his friends burst into the beer store like a bunch of teenagers once, just totally embarassing.

Who says this is politics. I think the politicians are Redefining politics by breaking limits one at a time. See how far they can test the system. See how many people really care.

Politicians do that all the time. It's part of creating their public image...which is just part of their politics

I wish you to step down from your position as Premier, Foug.  Make it happen.

The weird thing is why would Santa be outlining a wish list?? Santa is the one who provides the gifts on other peoples' wish-lists...

Also this may not be worthy of r/nottheonion

The irony is he is most likely to make his wishes come true. So he is his own Santa.

Here's my wish list to Doug Ford: Drop dead, you piece of shit.

Damn, just how much crack did he smoke to come with this one?

And by the way, dressing up as a fictional character, recognizing the non-existence of which is a sign of growing up and becoming an adult, means that he is suggesting that all those nice things people are dreaming about the government accomplishing, are just that, dreams. That people should grow up and realize the government isn't going to give them anything they may want or need. So yea, not exactly a great message being sent here, regardless of what they were actually trying to say.

His brother Drug Ford was a real meme, though.
