    2015 Federal Election

    I had some decent success predicting Ontario and Mayor election with my formula. Even though it very early. Let me give a try with the federal election. I am tabulating the top polls from the month (ignoring some strong polls like Nanos because they haven't updated during the month) putting more...

    Mayor John Tory's Toronto

    Have you notice the people who hate these events are the same people who don't want to raise their taxes for research. But will be first in line when advances in the medical field through the money is benefiting for them.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Hard to keep track We as taxpayers are paying for the first $20,000 of Mammo legal fees. Personally I think his constituencies should be footing that bill. We can call it "You elected a f*ckin corrupt a**hole tax" 6816 people voted for him. They can all pay a $3 tax. Even though that...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    This Mammo thing really shows the biggest problem with our system. You can break election rules and there really is no consequences. It seems like it's the honor system but when you have people with no honor than what's the point. If Tory wants to impress me he would actually but concrete...

    Mayor John Tory's Toronto

    It not a left or right thing. It's a Nunziata has shown to be absolutely incompetent for the job. Nunziata had four years to show her ability for the job and failed but gets it again. Great "change of culture" Tory.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I haven't been on for a while but I have to laugh at this delusion of Doug Ford savior of the PC party. I will give the Fords something, they are amazing at over-hyping their mediocre influence. Who else can convince themselves and others that an approval rating of 40% is a positive thing? As I...

    Should municipal elections have party politics?

    I don't like party politics. I like the ability to make odd bed fellows in trying to grab council vote without people just rubber stamping the party line.

    2014 Municipal Election: Toronto Council Races

    The two smartest conservatives on council (Parker and some extend Stintz) are gone, that's pretty depressing for the right-wing side of council.

    Mayor John Tory's Toronto

    I'm seeing some news talking about margin of victory and if that counts as a "mandate" or would that be a sign of struggling. If you look at history margin of victory has nothing to do with how successful you are. Actually it seems if you have a competitive win in your first Mayor win you end up...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Are the Fords again benefiting from "lowered standards" in making them look good. An incumbent (which Ford was) getting 34% is a record low (I went back to the 70s to look) Everybody was giving such a low bar for the Fords predicting low 20s even though polls showed they were going to be around...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Thanks for the reply. I always thought there was on campaigning on election day including ads. I thought it was odd that so many different station were said to play Doug Ford ads. He sure got a lot of radio ads for having the least amount of money donated, i guess all that money saved on...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I didn't listen to any radio today but on twitter there's a bunch of tweets of people hearing Doug Ford ads on the radio all day today. Kevin Daniels ‏@ksdaniels 10:19am I just heard a radio ad for Doug Ford. I thought it was illegal for campaigns to advertise on e-day. Any1 in #TOpoli able...

    100 Lies of Ford

    97. Doug said that Kathleen Wynne "Made the call to get Rob kicked off the football team". She obviously had nothing to do with it and documents of why it happened showed Rob actions what caused him to be let go. This is one of the biggest doozy of a lie he's ever told. 98. "The Star has a...

    I saw it on CP2Ford, so who knows. An then there's this Natalie Alcoba ‏@nataliealcoba 2:05pm "Doug Ford helping TCHC residents with their groceries."

    2014 Municipal Election: Toronto Mayoral Race

    Even if I try to give you the benefit of the doubt that 47% is the new "majority". But how exactly is Ford supporters "silent"? 90% of talk radio callers seem to be their supporters, in 2010 they had almost every talk radio host and multiple newspaper endorsements. What is your definition of...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I ended up voting for Chow. I wanted to vote for Ari, I really did. But there is no chance he will get into double digits and I think there is a chance for Chow to take second, and maybe even a slight hope she might win (I know very slight) I just couldn't bring myself to vote for Tory, his...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I need to clarify something. Is the $300,000 specific Doug Ford or does that also include Rob Ford. The money Rob Ford got, did it go to Doug? Is that part of the 300 K Considering how much more money Chow and Tory raised than Doug. How does it seem like Doug has more ads out there than Chow...

    100 Lies of Ford

    Yay Ford finally gave his donor list, but certainly not within an hour of Tory like he promised. So check mark for lie 92. Today is Football Sunday, and not all Ford lies are huge and important. A lot are petty and unnecessary. Here is a football themed lie pack. 93. I mentioned in lie #3...
