Premier Doug Ford has announced a looming ban on municipal photo-radar cameras that is poised to axe a planned Hamilton expansion of automated speed enforcement across the city.

“Enough is enough,” Ford said today in Vaughan in announcing legislation will be introduced next month to ban photo-radar cameras in all cities. “This is all about money, it’s all about a cash grab.”
