 What's up everybody takedown here welcome back to the channel today I'm gonna be sharing something with you that I never thought was gonna be on my channel And it is a video about politics now as you guys know I live in Canada. I live in Ontario So this is something that interests me. That's why I wanted to share it with you guys Some people are for it. Some people are against it So I just wanted to share it and share my opinion on the situation So recently Doug Ford announced he's going to be planning on cutting Toronto City Council in half Doug Ford is Ontario's premier. So he does have the right to do it He plans on cutting the council in half from 47 down to 25 seats, which is a big cut It's something that in my opinion. It's never really been done before by doing this. He will be saving taxpayers 25 million dollars in the city of Toronto Which is a lot of money Like I said, he does have the right to do it since he is Ontario's premier And a lot of people are trying to fight it a lot of people in Toronto Are bickering right after the announcement came because if you're on the receiving end of a big cut like this That's like saying you have a 50 50 chance of losing your job So obviously you're going to try to defend yourself and you're going to try to make this not happen I do understand that but in the same sense. He is Ontario's premier He does have the right to change any Municipality in Ontario if he so wishes the other cities in Ontario are now scared thinking he will do the same A lot of people thought he will be coming for Ottawa next and that is just not the case Which it is kind of funny because Ottawa's mayor is now against the cuts. He does not think in 2018 We should be cutting council staff back then whenever he was running for Ottawa mayor He wanted to cut Ottawa staff Not in half but from 25 down to 17 Which is a mild cut but because he was only running for mayor He had to get approved from everybody at city hall and nobody approved it So he wanted to make the cuts back then but now in 2018 when Doug Ford somebody that has the power to make these cuts He doesn't think they should be allowed to Which to me doesn't make sense because you were just going to do it years ago You just were out voted because you were not able to do it because you did not have the power to do it So it is pretty interesting in my opinion. Honestly, I would say Go ahead and cut them Toronto is Canada's biggest city But if it's going to save Toronto 25 million dollars, I think it is for the better But that is just my opinion. I want to see what you guys think Comment down below what your opinions are of this. Are you for or against this decision that Doug Ford is going to be doing? He doesn't plan on cutting it until october back when of the elections happen But Toronto says they're going to be fighting it in the meantime, which is something I don't think they can legally do I don't think they understand that he has the power to make these changes So if he does go through with it, it's going to happen. There's nothing they can really do about it But I want to see what you guys think comment down below and I'll see you guys in the next video Please take care. Peace
