For years, the Ford government has used the public purse to give cushy jobs to well-connected PC insiders – now they’ve set their sights on the judiciary.
Not only does this politicize what’s supposed to be an independent process – it erodes public trust in our system of government.
Whether it’s making dangerous statements about ‘like-minded judges’ or upending the balance between prosecution and defence appointments, this government’s ceaseless meddling has tainted our justice system.
It’s time for this government to clean up their own mess, stop the meddling, and reverse their legal aid cuts that are further clogging up our already-crowded courts.
We’re calling on Attorney General Doug Downey to uphold his duty to maintain an impartial court system by reversing course on Ford’s politicized judicial appointments.
