Ford won't be assassinated. Who would / could possibly attempt it? His opponents aren't typically that militant.

We could count the numerous politicians hanged in effigy :P

Sorry a little OT, but to whom are you referring to? Aside from Thomas D'arcy Mcgee and Pierre Laporte I'm not sure there has been any other politician assassinated.

Yes.

This.

Oh boy. You may lead a sheltered life and not see it, but I assure you there is a lot of hidden racism out there unfortunately.

Rob Ford may be a bigot, however, calling someone a bigot is not an effective argument. A bigot can be anyone who displays animosity towards another's beliefs, and that includes political beliefs. Rob Ford may also be uncomfortable with being at pride for moral or religious reasons. This is...

I don't agree with everything Ford does, but despite that I still voted for him because of his straightforward attitude. Vaughan is a douchebag, but he is right and there should be transparency.

Traffic on Pharmacy is more congested than ever before. I lived in an apartment at St.Clair, and making a left hand turn was near impossible (I still live in area). Aside from that, the community doesn't want them, they are barely used, and in winter time they serve only as places for the plows...

I would keep the bike lanes on Jarvis, but the ones on Pharmacy and Birchmount have to go.

I think the mayor should attend pride, however, if he is uncomfortable with it then he should have come right out and said so. If Rob Ford's morals and faith make him feel uncomfortable being at pride, then we should respect that and be tolerant. As long as Mr. Ford does not openly...

I would think that this move has just as much to do with putting the TCHC on a short leash as raising revenue.

Again, you can't simply paint all members of a group with the same brush based off of anecdotal evidence. This is not a valid reason for banning them. If I were you I'd go with the public safety re: running into traffic argument. Much more reasonable.

I've explained my arguments without referring to his answers. Can you stop threadshitting? Thanks.

Trying to understand his justification for his statements. Reread what I've said. I'm not against this law, I simply don't agree with Eug's reasons for it's justification.

Again, this is simply bad logic. To make money they need to solicit their services, and yes some people do appreciate this and pay for it. Are you implying that in the city of Toronto, there is not one single person who appreciates having their windshield washed? Are you honestly so timid...

Darting in and out of traffic to solicit squeegee services IS dangerous and should be banned. What I'm taking issue with is the idea that squeegee kids should be jailed because: A. Some people consider them intimidating B. They may possibly assault someone C. They may possibly damage someone's...

So, every single squeegee kid has or will assault you / damage your car?
