Is Ford really that afraid of what they might say?

Yes.

An MPP just made wild claims that the widely-known video of Ford talking to developers about selling the greenbelt was "AI generated" and "fake news". If they spoke freely, it would show how similar he is to Trump and Poilievre-style politicians.

Ford is also an authoritarian neoliberal who wants top-down, complete control of his party. Bill 212 revealed how little he cares for any public debate, public opinion, any form of expertise that goes against his beliefs, and how strongly he expects his MPPs to obey.
