Premier Doug Ford has taken to social media to show off his pumpkin carving abilities, as his government gets set to table controversial legislation which would impose a contract on school support staff.

In a two-and-a-half minute video posted to Twitter on Monday morning Ford is seen carving a pumpkin and reflecting on some of his favourite Halloween traditions.

In the video the premier remarks that there were always “pumpkin carving contests” at his house growing up and that he continued the tradition on with his four daughters.“My favourite thing to do is to get your hands in all this gunky stuff here and then separate the seeds, put them on a pan, put some salt all over them and put them in the oven. Then you are going to have some great pumpkin seeds,” Ford says.

On Sunday the union provided five days notice that it plans to strike, however the Ford government promptly

…shudder… can this man not even smile sincerely?

This clown simply destroyed ontario almost certainly made it worse then when winn was in office

Reform land lord tenant board Its a joke

Tax payers expect schools to remain open. It is not a charity education system where kids should be held hostage! If don’t like the pay, change fields. Ask lab technicians who get paid close to minimum wage. Should stop collecting blood? They will hold sick people hostage?

switching between 2 parties every time in the federal elections, and most times in provincial, territories elections is... Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. - Unknown.

While he carves up workers rights! Great imagery Doug! Hope you enjoy your 6-digit salary and months of time off from Queens Park!!

Ford has no shame.

Which union do you belong to?

his policies towards the educational workers and medical workers is scary enough

As if having him in charge isn’t scary enuf! 😡

Nice 1 😀😀😀

His daughter a participant at the convoy ... go testify Dougy

Covid is out of control and hospitals are a nightmare useless Dougy

No one cares. Bye

Carnival distraction from Doug's self proclaimed ascent to Emperor today.

Is that why he doesn't want to testify? Too busy carving pumpkins and making ridiculous videos? onpoli onted

Did you ask him today when he is going to testify? Or is fordnation still a giant coward? He’s playing “pick on the poorest union” just to take the attention off himself. Ask him why?

And he’s hiding.

Well they only want +11% per year for 4 years. Who gets 40% over 4 years 🤣. I’d be carving pumpkins too. 10% over 4 years is more than fair.

investigateFord

Here's your premier, he dropped out of Humber after 2 months and became your premier, just like that garbage company owner appointed by Mike Harris to be minister of education, this one appointed a slave auctioneer as minister of education 'White Power'.... (Info from Wikipedia)

He would know as he has made Ontario a scary place to live in. That media darling loves to trample on our rights, doesn't he? Please stop promoting this criminal. DougFordMustResign FordFailedOntario cdnmediafailed

This man has the most incompetent and tone deaf PR team. God damn 😂 guess it's inline with the rest of his team.

I care more about the children. They've lost so much time already and they were not doing well overall to begin with. Teachers want more money cool parents want their children to be able to read, write and do arithmetic which many are so far behind on as is.

Ford is scary enough with out the aid of a pumpkin.

Martha Stewart, he ain’t!

I’m a conservative but you can take that pumpkin and shove it up your a$$. You give your housing development friends a huge win to skirt regulations and think our education workers are evil as well as our transit workers.

fordnation's arrogance has no bounds. Comfortably at the cottage thinking he has all the power. I think he's about to find out the people of Ontario have far more power and are done with him.

This is why he’s too busy to testify?

What a biased and awful title. Shame on you

Look who's fiddling while Ontario burns!

Hash dealing thug says what?

Health care/Education system collapsing.. Doug Ford: 🎃

Avoids answering for his actions but releases video on pumpkin carving, Jesus H., we are doomed

Looks like it was carved by a 3 year old.

You are a joke.

PLEASE MENTION DURING ANY QUESTIONING THAT STEVEN LECCE GAVE HIMSELF A 16,000 DOLLAR A YEAR RAISE!!!!...... PLEASE SHARE THE WORD!! ASK THE QUESTIONS PLEASE!!!

Man already has a jack o lantern for a head.

if people keep electing the Liberals, Conservatives, at the Federal, Provincial, and Territorial levels of govt a dictatorship isn't far behind. PierrePoilievre DougFord are prime examples.

I think this is insulting to put this PR video out on a day where his government is putting the screws to the lowest paid education workers. This government is misogynistic targeting female dominated jobs.

This is why Dougie is the best Premier ever! 4 more years and then another 4 years!

FU Ford!!!!!

He can do both

Hey your political bias is showing...

This video is scary. FordFailedOntario NeverVoteConservative

This ducking guy! Ontario, what’s wrong with you?

Everyone is sick and tired for same BS educates do! Every contracts ends during school year so they can take kids hostage for negotiation! Disgusting

How dare he

cp24 Need to caption your photos please. Which one is the pumpkin?

is DougFord a Dictator in Training? DougFord taking away a right to strike away from Education Sector Workers. who will be next? how many times will the People of Ontario and Canada have to learn the same lesson? slow learners?

Which one is the hollowed out pumpkin head?

fordnation now trying to start a dictatorship…awesome 🙄🙄

Sooo he still at the cottage?

I read this tweet 100% thinking it was satire.

Here’s the finished product…..

Oh he’s made it a scary experience for all of us in Ontario for sure. Years of scary. Drop the ego fordnation Sflecce. Parents want kids in school but many don’t support what you are doing. CUPE parentaction4ed onted

This guy is a cancer.

Lovable Cheesecake Doug days ended when ER wait times hit 20 hours. Ontario is in crisis and we have a clown at the helm.

What does one thing have to do with another? Unless you’re a news outlet desperate to manufacture a story.

I finally get why Ontario is in such a mess!! We hired a halloween decorator as Premier...again!! Talk about a skills mismatch!! AND not learning from our mistakes!!

Ford tuff

He looks like a hedgehog with a drinking problem. I would say it’s a Halloween costume, but he looks like that every day!

As long as we know how to carve a pumkin... thank you for this video... its as useful as your cheesecake video during covid. fordnation... get your priorities straight. FireLecce FireFord

Am I the only one who watched and was hoping that knife would slip and welll… you know?

ShutDownOntario SHUTDOWN

fordnation is another liberal

Just like he carved up people’s lives during the pandemic. He makes me sick.

OMG, the man is a clown 🤡

Imagine thinking every living breathing second of Doug’s life needs to be spent on work?

They tried to force education workers back to work 10 years ago. It was unconstitutional then and it's unconstitutional now.

His Bravery is refreshing. One of the finest pumpkins we have all seen. Take a moment to admire his work and forget your left wing bias and let your soul be free.

Dont forget your costume dougie!

So good at his job!

Smarten up . You’re suppose to deliver the news, not take sides.

He has time to carve a pumpkin but not take the time fix our disastrous health care and education systems. Shame on you Fordnation

Whoever is his communications/media officer, needs to be fired. This is the most ridiculous he could've posted in the midst of this legislation to strip workers of their rights and him avoiding testifying in the Emerg. Act trial.

Carve his face on them... They'll be the most frightening pumpkins this year.

CBCPitchbot They did the thing

Which ones the pumpkin?
