Premier Ford lied in a written statement, and now has admitted that he lied. He should be joining his Minister of Finance in resigning.

The St Barts vacation and the lies require resignation. But so does the mishandling of the second wave. No proper tracing / testing for workplaces where the most problems are; no plan to help low income neighbourhoods where those working people live;
Letting the owners of the worst Long Term Care Homes used COVID funds to pay themselves a bonus; failing to use COVID funds to help people and much, much more. The St Barts vacation, and the Premiers lies about it, are a symptom of an out of touch and negligent government
A government that needs to go - starting with the Minister of Finance, tomorrow. Or tonight. His vacation to the isle of the rich and famous is a revealing fundamental error of judgement. (Not a mistake as apologists suggest) He must resign.
This scandal directly touches the Premier, who admits lying. He must be held to account too. In a just world, his resignation would be offered. And accepted.
