Ford needs to explain the whole MIA thing. State of emergency or not shouldn't be the question, but rather where was he and why could he not be reached for an extended period of time?

Funny, the city and hydro are being derided for not preparing for an event we knew was coming well ahead of time, but somehow people are exempt from preparing. You'd think the fact that we live in a country with a significant number of months in the cold sprung up on us.
But the really selfish SOB's are the people politicizing an issue that would have no measurable effect, was not recommended by city staff, whom presumably are the experts, and wasn't pursued by any other Mayor in the region facing the same storm. But it's so much easier to whine about people needing help, while sitting online and bitching about the Mayor to be contrary despite him doing the right thing for once.
Baffling how some people think Ford acted appropriately. WOW. Handled this terribly.
BTW: State of Emergency = More Resources. So to tell me nothing would have changed is ridiculous.
Actually no, the selfish SOB's are the ones comfortably going "heh you should have been utterly prepared for no heat or power for three days in frigid temperatures, granny! This is Canada."

Well said, or this SOB just happens to have a fireplace or be better prepared than others. Selfish right wing nutjob mentality.

So you think the province is holding back resources on this until Ford declares it an emergency against the advice of city staff?

Just so everyone knows: if declaring an emergency can help, the premier can do it herself. No requirement for her to wait on the mayor.
