Dave? Is that you?
Dave's not here, man.
Dave? Is that you?
She's 4 years older now, so maybe the plan worked. She's also entered adolescence and probably still doesn't have a lot of understanding of "healthy choices" even if they are available. "Stress eaters" fill obesity clinics. I just hope nobody starts her on the powdered protein and coconut flour diet the Special Ks preach.fwiw... stephanie doesn't look like she's missed many meals. if anything, dougie needs to be better fed.

From the It's Before the Courts Dept., the latest on the Fords vs Macdonald COI case:
Chris Caple @chriscaple 43m43 minutes ago Toronto, Ontario
Seven of us here at Osgoode in @judemacdonald's stead. Fords' lawyers just walked in and looked surprised.
Throwing Fords' lawyers slightly off kilter is a pretty solid feeling.
Judge arrives. Court is in session. Fords' lawyer has a cold and is complaining about the number of people here.
Fords' lawyer accuses Jude's lawyer of bringing a bunch of people here. Jude's lawyer says no, these people are here to support Jude.
Apparently Fords' lawyer (Gavin Tighe) has some items he doesn't want to discuss in open court.
Tighe now complaining about not having received an affidavit he's requested from Jude's lawyers.
Basically the Fords are supposed to answer a set of written questions from Jude's lawyers & Tighe seems to be trying to delay or block that.
Jude's lawyer @schchtr is now up & explaining that Jude's father died on the 15th & hasn't had chance to affirm affidavit.
Judge says ok, just send the unsworn affidavit and get on with it and Jude can swear it later.
Eight people here in court in support of Jude. Zero people here supporting Fords, beyond their two lawyers.
Lawyers arguing over what content will be allowed in affidavit; judge proposes affidavit will contain no new exhibits or info. Agreement.
Now Tighe moving to item he wanted to discuss in private, saying he didn't expect there to be public here today.
Judge reviewing note from Tighe, agrees this is a matter to be discussed in confidence, asks public to leave.
So! We're out of the court. Apparently the matter involves some concern regarding personal privacy rights. Do not know what it is.

— The Fords now have to answer the 41 or so written questions Jude's lawyers have prepared. I gather they have about a week to respond.
Other than these excerpts, is anyone else actually reading Fillion's book?... but overall it seems like Fillion did a pretty good job of not just retelling stories, but trying to lay the groundwork for *why* all of the Fords turned out the way they did.

KD would write an awesome Ford book! He has stuff on Rob and Renata, Doug, Price, and Sandro that others don't.
i gotta highlight this part of the article too...
When Doug confirmed that he’d heard the same stories from credible sources, Kouvalis reports that Diane told her son: “Stop. All you care about is being the mayor yourself. This is all about you guys plotting against Robbie.”
Kouvalis tried to convince the family that Rob’s behaviour would impact the family business and embarrass Diane. She told him to leave and not come back.
