Ford loses cabinet minister as Mulroney announces resignation
Doug Ford loses a senior cabinet minister as political pressure mounts — while fresh turmoil hits Ontario’s Liberals
A major cabinet resignation and fresh party infighting are adding to the political turbulence at Queen’s Park. Doug Ford is losing a key member of his cabinet after Caroline Mulroney announced she will step down as Treasury Board President and resign her York–Simcoe seat, triggering a byelection and handing Ford another political challenge amid falling poll numbers and recent controversies.
Meanwhile, internal tensions are flaring inside the Ontario Liberal Party after Nate Erskine-Smith lost his appeal over a disputed nomination battle in Scarborough Southwest, exposing deeper questions about party unity and internal trust.
Toronto Sun political columnist Brian Lilley joins Marc Patrone to break down what Mulroney’s departure means for Ford, what Erskine-Smith’s loss reveals about Ontario Liberal dysfunction, and why both stories could signal a new chapter in Ontario politics.
