Doug Ford floats idea of electing judges in rant on bail reform [Video]

Ontario Premier Doug Ford blasted judges in the province whom he perceives as being soft on crime, and floated ideas such as electing judges and offering them payouts to retire early. Ford was at Peel Regional Police headquarters to announce measures on bail in an upcoming justice bill, though he said the most meaningful bail reform actions must come from the federal government.
