Will Ford explain to pizza makers why he’s got a tax plan for rich friends but nothing for them?

We know who gets the dough under Doug Ford, and it’s not pizza makers.

Doug Ford’s tax plan is more focused on his rich friends – the same insiders he spent time with at a rule-breaking cash-for-access fundraiser two weeks ago – than it is on the pizza makers he’s posing with this afternoon for a photo-op.

Under Doug Ford, big corporate executives – not mom and pop pizza shop staff – get thousands of dollars in huge tax breaks they don’t need. Under Doug Ford, those rich friends of his get the whole pizza pie, while minimum wage workers and hard-working small business owners get the crumbs.

With Ford, while the rich get richer, someone earning $49,000 per year would get just $18 back at the end of the year from Ford’s tax cut. And they’ll lose billions in services, from health care to education.

Why do Doug Ford and the Tories think there’s one set of rules for them, and one for everyone else?
