Newstalk 1010 is reporting some councillors are going to try to suspend Rob Ford's powers at next weeks meeting.

Running interference. The Fords love football analogies.

I can't believe that just because Ford hasn't been arrested for anything yet that they think it means that he can't or won't or that coming out swinging is the way to deal with all this. Again, WOW!

Oh, the Brothers Ford are pushing maximum overload. They have gone from sorry to snarly. WOW.

No because it doesn't have to be a tangible item in order for the crime of extortion to have occurred. It could be using force to make someone do something as well, so even without the video it wouldn't matter provided TPS has wiretap evidence of him doing it.

I don't feel that the discovery of the tape is what prompted the arrest. I think it was the release of the ITO and the details that were going to be made public more than the video because that was a bombshell from Blair. But it was well played because if Lisi is not the big fish in this whole...

It wouldn't be necessary if the Crown could prove that he believed there was a video and exerted force to retrieve it. It helps but it's not the "smoking gun" of the whole case.

There are also some people named in the ITO that aren't locked up right now that may have some awareness of the situation. Maybe if the police start hauling them in one by one they will eventually get the information they need to confirm what they believe transpired. A chain is only as good as...

Gawker and the Star have had quite a pissing match via email about "the scoop". http://gawker.com/tom-tips-back-special-tom-tips-edition-1458317675

I like the idea of it being brand as a rally FOR The City instead of a protest AGAINST Ford.

Just some slogan ideas. These may be cheesy but feel free to improvise..... "Put Toronto first." "Whatever you do, it's about Toronto." "There's a bit of Toronto in all of us."

Wouldn't the publication ban prevent them from releasing any evidence?

Other radio hosts try to keep callers from going off on rants. The Fords seem more than happy to let them ramble and take up air time.
