The mayor of Guelph has taken a friendly jab at the premier of Ontario following a viral clip of Doug Ford swallowing a bee at a news conference.

Ford swallowed the bee Friday while making an announcement near Barrie.

He laughed it off and called it a blooper, while a spokesperson for the premier says he's doing well after the incident.

Just a few hours, Guelph Mayor Cam Guthrie tweeted a photo of him in a bee costume at a podium.

"I've got my outfit ready to meet with @fordnation this weekend at @AMOPolicy!" the tweet from Guthrie reads.

Both Guthrie and Ford will be attending the Association of Municipalities of Ontario conference being held in Ottawa.
