Doug Ford ventured out to the Special Olympics without his paid political clappers.
It didn't go well for him.
https://www.blogto.com/city/2019/05/doug-ford-special-olympics/"I haven't heard that much energy in a long time," Ford said to the jeering crowd. He then added, "boy, that's the first event that I've ever had some boos."
While Ford wasn't the only politician present at the opening ceremonies, some noted that he was the only one to receive such a resounding negative reception.
It's not much of a surprise that Ford didn't receive a warm welcome at last night's event, seeing as he recently cut funding to the Ontario Autism Program.
Many athletes with autism compete in the Special Olympics, and were likely present in the crowd.
Twitter was quick react to the Ford boo session, with most people siding with the protesting audience.
