He'll most likely try to play on Quebec's anti-immigration feelings like Legault (current Premier) did when he won the most recent election. Quebec is actually a perfect place for a situation like Trump voters to play out again because it almost already happened with the NDP in the 2011 federal election.

Basically, if I'm Ford - assuming I don't die of heart disease between now and whenever I decided to step to the plate, I just play on the fears of gullible idiots living in the rural areas about Muslims and try to play it off like I'm the only thing standing in between you and Sharia Law. If he can flip 5-10 ridings in Quebec, he has an outside chance. We know that people in Western Canada and the GTA are dumb enough to vote for him.

Quebeckers proved in 2011 that speaking French is not an issue if they feel that the party represents their interests from an ideological when they voted for the NDP. In the next election they could vote for Ford if they think he's has their best cultural interest at heart. Remember, this is a province where the rural and small town population is so batshit scared of Muslims that a city of 90% Roman Catholics - not even Christian, and 97% white, had a mass shooting targeting Muslims.

And the important thing is you don't have to win Quebec - you just have to take 5-10 ridings from the Liberals and find some way to split the vote in Toronto.
