Backyard Barbecue: Ford and Ayoola

backyard barbecue: On June 7, Ayoola plans to cast a ballot for a party she's never voted for before, now that there's a Ford in charge, according to Toronto Star. The way they care about the little people, the way they help them, that's what matters, said Ayoola, who moved to Canada from Nigeria in 1998. The 32-year-old Mississauga resident is a regular at Ford Fest, the annual backyard barbecue hosted by rookie Progressive Conservative leader and former Toronto councillor Doug Ford and his brother, late mayor Rob Ford, at their mother Diane's Etobicoke home. As a mother with six kids between 16 months and 11 years old, it can be tough to make ends meet, she said. Like, how can we cope Ayoola said. The food prices are going up, everything's getting higher and higher. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
