Premier Doug Ford is hitting the campaign trail, but he’s ruling out an early election call to cash in on a bump in the polls over his government’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. In an interview with the Star on Tuesday, Ford was asked if his province-wide summer tour is to set the stage for a snap vote this fall. “Parents working from home are struggling with child care and Doug Ford is nowhere to be found,” said Del Duca. Really, really, really troubling,” she said. But the latest Campaign Research poll for the Star found Ford now has an overall 39 per cent approval, a swing of 88 percentage points.
