Great news. Especially with the CANDU reactors being decommissioned it’s nice to see that there’s still at least some political push to invest in nuclear, even if I think Doug Ford is a cretin.

Fun fact, my father used to buy drugs in Doug Ford’s house when he was a teenager.

Was Doug Ford the one selling the drugs?

I think it's been well established Doug used to sell weed when he was a teenager.

And (allegedly) crack in recent years.

Isn't that the crack smoking mayor of Toronto? Selling weed is almost quaint by comparison.

His late brother.

He still does, but it turns out he's not very good at it. His government's policy on cannabis sales is doing more to bolster the black market than its own revenues. Very suspicious, given his past connections to the black market.

No. My dad’s understanding was that Doug was selling larger quantities to low level dealers who people would buy from. And it was known that if you came over to Dougs house you could meet these low level dealers.
