It depends on how much farther down the rabbit hole Ontarians are pulled by their right wing. Basically - is Trump the anomaly, or was Obama? 20 years from now, if Doug Ford turns out to have been the beginning of a shift in Ontario toward right-wing corporatism and authoritarianism, then having urban issues on the front page right now won't matter much. German newspapers talked about their democratic, progressive constitution a lot in the 1930s too.
