The article does specify that the Ford government tested the plates with "key stakeholders", which I'd imagine the 407 cameras would be one of them.

- pletsch 7y agoEhh, the 407 is owned by the CPP (50.01%). Ford isn't a fan of the CPP, he tried to cut the increase almost immediately after taking office, I could see him cutting them out. This is also seen in Alberta, another conservative-led province, they've been trying to back out of it for years. Also, and this is anecdotal, I'm from a small town that votes overwhelmingly conservative, and a common talking point I hear is "why should we pay into the cpp? It won't be there when we retire" even though the fund is in no danger of going away anytime soon.
