In 2018, Ontario Premier Doug Ford ordered then-transport minister John Yakabuski to ‘fundamentally’ re-evaluate Metrolinx — a key Crown agency responsible for billions of dollars and millions of commuters.

In the mandate letter approved by Ford, the transportation minister was directed to decide whether “any institutional changes (were) needed at this agency.”

People with knowledge of the relationship said the government had been “picking away” at the agency’s ability to communicate with the public since then.

Controversially, Ford also ordered the uploading of Toronto’s subway system into the provincial fold, which Toronto city council heavily resisted.

In this Global News exclusive, Colin D’Mello shares the details.
