 Not as sick as I am of him, though. 

Apparently despite this province very clearly not being the UK or we would have Gregg's vegan sausage rolls and it would be easier for me to "accidentally" wander onto the Doctor Who set, Ford quietly—with the agreement of the Liberals and Greens—instituted a mandate to have the Ontario Legislature sing “God Save the Queen” (not the Sex Pistols one, the other one) on the first Monday of each month that the government is sitting.

(Fortunately, the government doesn't sit very often, as they took seven months of vacation last year.)

Three Indigenous MPPs (all NDP, with the support of their caucus), refuse, and here is why if it's not obvious.

It's bad enough that anyone sings the Canadian national anthem when Canada is reneging on its reconciliation promises and obligations under the UN Convention on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples but this is ridiculous. He's tossing money to American firms to murder poor people, instituting educational cuts modelled on failed American models. Now he thinks he's BoJo, which in fairness it's easy to confuse them, but this is taking things a little too far.
