    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Absolutely not.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    So obnoxious. I left the Eglinton/Allen area when it was trying to rebrand itself as "The International Market". Barf.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    It's illegal for public employees acting in a professional capacity to take your photo outside of the legislative boundaries in MFIPPA, if you are in a City of Toronto establishment such as City Hall. I doubt you could smack the camera away, but if a mayoral staffer is taking pictures of...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    If Ford's staffers are taking pictures of the public while acting in a professional capacity (i.e. if requested by Ford), a member of the public could theoretically file a complaint to the privacy commissioner. It's very unlikely that the video surveillance notice of collection At city hall...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    The worst part of the campaign launch was George Chuvalo on stage. This is a man whose family was completely destroyed by substance abuse. For him to support Ford is horrible to me.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Ford is doubling down on the billion dollar lie, saying he found "more than a billion". Ridiculous.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Perhaps I'm in the minority here, but I wasn't a huge fan of her television interviews. She seemed like a fish out of water and used a lot of filler words to get her points across. With some proper elocution training, she could be great, but she's got work to do.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I got one too. Superbarf. I keep one for the power issue, but also because I hate talking to people on cell phones, and I often have long phone conversations. There is not one single cell phone on the market that sounds better than a $10 land line phone. Every single cell phone...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I tend to think that it's because we spend more time at work than we do on any other single activity except maybe sleep.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Easy mistake for auto-correct to pick up, or to even be mis-typed. N beside B, I beside U. All it takes is the right-hand shifted one key to the right.

    2014 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    I've been asked not to say anything until he officially announces, but there's going to be a great non-Ford candidate in Ward 2. He's anticipating announcing on April 22.

    Wishful thinking indeed.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Sadly, my past-tense usage was due to auto-correct on my tablet. Assuming all else was the same, Ford might not have won in 2010 IF Smitherman was 48% of all other voters' first or second choice. He didn't win a majority - it would have been close, but it was possible. Now, to be clear, I'm...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Ford will never won an election ever again if the ranked ballot initiative passes.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I think it's more that he just knows that unless it's slander or otherwise implicates him in a crime, there are pretty much no repercussions for anything he says. Doug Ford said we'll never see Rob or him in scandal. This is obviously ridiculous. But aside from voting him out in October, what...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    He did a pathetic scrum and walked away when reporters asked him if he was still doing drugs.

    His answers also seem to have changed a bit since Doug got back into town. Hm...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    "Deputy Mayor, me, and thousands of other people". I guess we're to assume that the actual mayor is counted in the "thousands of other people" category?

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    The Fords realized a long time ago that there are no consequences for their behaviour. I mean, it's obviously completely ridiculous and, to me, shows how demonstrably unfit either one of them is for office, but they're just sitting over there going "So what are you gonna do about it?". People...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I don't know how particularly relevant this is, and I'm sure it's public knowledge already, but Pina Martino used to work for the Mayor's office, back in 2011-2012. She left before the crack scandal, when she was nominated for the PCPO-Etobicoke Centre. I worked with her once on an issue for...
