“Let’s just call this for what it is – Doug Ford sounds like Donald Trump and that’s because he is like Donald Trump,” Wynne said. “He believes in (an) ugly, vicious brand of politics that traffics in smears and lies. He’ll say anything about anyone at any time because just like Trump, it is all about him.”

Wynne predicted this campaign, which wraps up at the ballot box on June 7, will be “vicious” but said she was ready to fight for what she believes is the right vision for Ontario.
