The leader of the official opposition in Ontario, the largest Canadian province, Andrea Horwath, has called on Prime Minister Doug Ford to step down amid worsening COVID-19 third wave.

In a statement on Tuesday, Horwath said that Ford should resign, and he refused to listen to experts, and instead led to a brutal, horrifying and deadly third wave, adding that “people are losing their lives; people who would have otherwise made it through this. Ontario deserves so much better.”

Also Ontario Liberal Leader Steven Del Duca issued a press release calling for Ford’s resignation saying “Doug Ford is the worst premier in Ontario history at a time when leadership matters the most.”

Ontario tops the list of Canadian provinces in terms of the number of coronavirus cases, recording a total of 421,442 infections, along with 7,735 deaths since the beginning of the pandemic.
