    Rob Ford's Toronto

    One thing is clear. Maybe it's not the inner, inner circle, but people very close to the inner circle are talking now. This could be just the beginning.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I remember hearing the BB mother assault thing, and for a while I had him mixed up with Lisi, and then when I heard that Lisi's parents were selling their house to pay for his defence, I was all "holy shit, poor abused parents..."

    OMG. He is one sick bastard. You know, it's no wonder people speculate and buy into wild conspiracy theories given what turns out to be true.

    Thanks for taking the time to answer in detail. I have no doubt that no matter which choices you make, they will be informed choices, and I respect that. I wish more voters were like you.

    For what it's worth, Kat's Meow, I'm an NDPer, but I also got what you were saying, and the attacks weren't warranted. I'm not sure if you have looked into the issue of "NDP spending", or if it's a case of Conservative talking points being repeated so often that they become reality for some, but...

    I was just reading her feed, thinking the same thing. She seems awesome. :)

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    That's interesting. It never occurred to me that he was pretty much under the influence at almost all times. I guess maybe I just have trouble recognizing highly functions alcoholics to that degree? I think I'm like many people and thought more in terms of him being a binge drinker, because he...

    I'm guessing that you're a young, single guy without a wife and kids. If so, sounds like you have things under control, and if you were in a position where that were no longer appropriate, you'd have a handle on that. Good for you. ETA - dear mayor reminds me of "Dear Leader," haha.

    Thanks for the information, and congratulations on taking that step - continued good wishes. Thanks to everyone else for posting all the news. Work was so busy today I barely had time to breathe, never mind check for Rob Ford news, and it's nice to have one spot to come to at the end of the...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I can't see the Ford family orchestrating the release of a crack video to get Rob into rehab. Alcohol has always been their go-to story, while avoiding the drug use. I think that if they were going to do anything, they would have left it at the audio recording, or even had him filmed while...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Funny that this should be brought up, because I was thinking of this yesterday in the context of what has happened since. The reporters did say that the odour was stronger in an area away from Ford's office. I have the knowledge of a gnat when it comes to hvac systems in large buildings, but I...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    This version rings most true to me. There are definite similarities in some ways! I just wanted to point out how ridiculous it was to suggest that Kathy's home being searched would further the TPS case. If they were going to arrest him based on a video, they could have done that months ago...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I've literally had this thread open in a tab and have read every word since the day after the first crack video was reported. I guess it just boggles my mind to see him go from a credible source to this. A case of internet fame going to one's head, I suppose. They didn't just get him on use...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    It was with a series of tweets though, that included this one: https://twitter.com/MetroManTO/status/462037895457435648 which to someone who isn't familiar with him (i.e. everyone who isn't in this thread) could be taken to imply that he has some sort of insider knowledge. TPS have...

    I might be wrong, but I think it was more than just her. Goldsbie? Tossell?

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Sorry to quote myself, but Kristyn Wong-Tam spoke during that clip, and it reminded me. Someone tweeted a link a few nights ago with her speaking with an interviewer regarding Rob's disregard of the LGBT community, in which she that "it's not that he doesn't understand us, he hates us," after a...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Thanks for posting that. Whoever tweeted it did say that Ford said "is that it? Is that the end of your deputation?" I'll admit that the tone of his voice wasn't dismissive, but I'm guessing that whoever tweeted it maybe meant that he seemed unmoved, relative to the rest of the councillors. And...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Dale and McConnell sort of stand for me as representations of individuals who have been hurt (in McConnell's case, physically) by Rob Ford. By all accounts, Dale is a good guy, honest, unbiased, who really didn't deserve any of this, and has every right to be bitter. Not sure I could be as big...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I can't remember who mentioned it on Twitter, I catch up on the TO media list I follow, and open any interesting links I see as I go along, and then read them after. I do remember someone tweeting about this though, a 14 yr old at the time, who was one of the deputants against library budget...

    Good for her. I hope she finds the strength to make it stick.
