@deborahh @Ulrich_the_Old @moormaan Ford is terrible and corrupt, but for clarity he does not control Elections Ontario polling site decisions. EO is an non-partisan independent agency (Elections Canada too), and it was COVID-related voter space decisions that were a big part of that consolidation of locations in one riding, Toronto Centre.

Just wanted to clarify that piece for anyone reading who's unfamiliar with how elections work in Canada, as I work with EO & EC during elections.
