    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Mammoliti has already indicated that he plans to move a motion for no increase. Don't be surprised to see Rob Ford support it. Remember, he has voted against his budget chief's recommendations when he still had all the powers of office.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Rob Ford lives in a land of stereotypes. Crack houses are those places you see in movies and on TV. Grandmothers, grandfathers, parents, children, uncles and aunts don't live in crack houses. His friends don't live in crack houses. So the place where he used crack cannot be a crack house. But...

    No "unless": they are still two different phones. There were still two very different approaches taken: pot for the Mayor's cell phone; something being called extortion to secure the video months later.

    It's reading as though people are confusing two different things. Rob Ford lost his own phone. This loss was not reported to police. The ITO indicates that Sandro Lisi was going around with a bag of pot, trying to get the Mayor's phone back. Sandro Lisi is now charged with extortion relating to...

    Yeah, what requiem said. Not scary. Just a big steaming pile of tedious sexist crap. It's feeling like this thread is trapped in a room with snickering 12 year old boys. I didn't find being stuck in such a place at all interesting when I was 12, either.

    Fillion's motion will not be debated or voted on this week. If it receives enough support, it will come up as part of the December meeting. The other option - again, with enough support - would be to hold a special meeting.

Under Council rules, the Speaker is directed to ensure that a question is answered. While the answer could be "I cannot...

    I listened to the Oxy conversation again recently. Dieter talks about ominous phone calls and threats from thugs. Sounds a lot different now than it did listening then.

    In Toronto, the Integrity Commissioner is part of our governing process. If there is something criminal to be addressed, that's what the criminal justice system is supposed to be there for.

    Don't feel too bad. That was not Mayor Rob Ford's only appearance with the rabbi's UptownChabad channel. http://youtu.be/7nS6CuluBlQ http://youtu.be/cV3KD5UaTv0

    This is the point made in both the Star and CBC articles I've linked to. Here's another: York Regional Police Det. Mike Amato refused to provide specific examples of corruption to the Quebec commission, saying, “That question there is too close to something that we are working on right now.”...

    “Sometimes the politicians are very naive people,” Soave said. “They don’t look at the danger, the risk of . . . they shake hands, they take money . . . and then ask for forgiveness. “This is one of the fundamental issues about organized crime. People do not want to admit that they have a...

    "We went to Italy to investigate the importance of the Italian Mafia in the world and especially Montreal, and anti-Mafia investigators there told us, 'Forget Montreal. It's about Toronto now, with the most powerful Mafia in the world, the Calabrian Mafia.'"...

    All of the sudden, this thread is taking on the toxic, swaggering, bully dynamic very familiar to those of us who are active on #TOpoli. Sad.
