Ford Fest Photo Edited to Erase Striking Workers from the Crowd
On June 23, 2026, two Progressive Conservative MPPs — including Attorney General Doug Downey and Scarborough MPP David Smith — posted an aerial photo of Ford Fest that appeared to have been edited to remove the purple shirts of roughly 850 striking community and social-service workers, making the crowd look uniformly blue with PC supporters. The Premier's Office denied doctoring the image, calling the change routine "colour correction."
