Krista Ford Haynes is a conspiracy theorist and former professional women’s American football player from Canada.
She is the niece of former Toronto Mayor Rob Ford and the daughter of Ontario Premier and Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario Leader Doug Ford.
Haynes has spread COVID-19 misinformation and conspiracy theories throughout Ontario throughout the COVID-19 outbreak. This includes anti-vaccination and anti-mask views, and COVID-19 vaccine passports have been criticized.
She was the captain of the Lingerie Football League’s Toronto Triumph.
Krista Ford Career
When the league’s Toronto franchise initially opened for business in 2011, Haynes, a Humber College student at the time, was one of more than 100 women who tried out for the first squad.
Haynes’ tryout was frequently covered in the press since she was the niece of then-Toronto mayor Rob Ford and the daughter of then-Toronto city councilor Doug Ford.
Because the league lacked stars in its early seasons, according to technology journalist Patrick Seitz, the scant press attention it received treated it simply as a “peep show.”
To offset the peep-show coverage, he claimed Haynes and Angela Rypien, the daughter of former Super Bowl MVP Mark Rypien, were two potential stars the league could give in the 2011 season.
Haynes was chosen as the team’s first captain by the management. She was also the team’s marketing manager, in charge of obtaining sponsorships.
When it came to competing against more experienced teams in the league, the club struggled.
Players expressed worry that they had been given unsafe equipment and that the team’s most senior members lacked the experience to properly instruct them to compete safely.
Following the club’s loss in its first non-exhibition game, management fired the one experienced member of the coaching staff, who team members believed had the experience to serve as head coach, as well as four of her teammates.
As a result, Haynes and the remaining 15 members of the team quit.
Krista Ford Private Life
Ford is married to former Toronto police officer and bodybuilder David Haynes. He was fired from the TPS in November 2021 because he refused to take the COVID-19 vaccine.
During a public press conference on February 15, 2022, Doug Ford, Haynes’ father, admitted to family rifts over COVID-19.
