A Hamilton-area provincial election Progressive Conservative candidate says the decision to skip a local all-candidates’ debate next week was made by the Ontario PC party, not him

They are learning from their leader Doug, go into hiding, avoid the press or all party debates at any cost. Don't allow your past record to be scrutinized. So much the leader that promised transparency.
@TheSpec
We already knew that, Ivana Yelitch calls the shots. She’s keeping Ford under raps so he doesn’t say anything stupid. Like no pressers,unvetted questions,etc. She doesn’t want the other party members to screw up on debates.

@WillBoumaBrant
was also a no show for the Brantford-Brant debate. Not a good look. Plus his anti-2SLGBTQ+ and anti women’s reproductive rights isn’t resonating with voters.
@HarveyBischof
is currently leading in a historically Con riding.

Like Scheer w the 'no platform! thing... they think if they don't say anything it will do them well. Let's make them rethink that by voting them out!!! Plus Ford doesn't want to be outshone by his candidates. He set the bar so low. Lol.

You're not really being fair here. It's really hard to go to an all candidates debate and speak for yourself when you are used to being told what to do behind closed doors by wealthy donors in the development industry.
@TheSpec
The surprise is they admitted it, not that the party is telling candidates to give your middle finger to you constituents. This govt has been doing that for 4 years.
