    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Well THAT sucks. :( It could also mean that Ford is redacted from the docs, as he's conceivably an "innocent third party who has not been charged". :( EDIT: The last vestige of hope, from Edward Keenan:

    Thanks you! Exactly what I was thinking. People need to stop jumping to conclusions so damn fast around here.

    I believe he's joking about the fact that the vast majority of email servers cap attachments at 10 megs, and the most I've ever seen is 20 megs. So, it won't be easy to email it back + forth. Perhaps it will appear on dropbox! :)

He keeps repeating "I can't comment on anything before the courts" and ends with "No comment" when asked...

    Your comment, that I was replying to, said "even a group of landlords, doesn't have the economic power to control all the pricing elements of their housing stock." Price fixing and collusion are how a group of landlords can control the price of their stock. I never said it's not operating in a...

    You've never heard of collusion/price fixing?

    Please explain this theory, as you understand it.

    I dunno man, that's pretty xenophobic for someone who's trying to deny bigotry/racism. It's pretty telling that your response is "send them back where they came from!" rather than "we need to change the policy that bumps them up ahead of people who have been on the list for so long." The really...

    Yes, absolutely, get them off the waterfront Rob! Even better, why don't we put all of the affordable housing... together?? That way they can all relate to each other! I mean, we could build entire buildings of just affordable housing. It's kind of crazy that the poor people live like, right...

    It's not so much an indictment as it is an admission that the "questions about peripheral issues" were on point and, therefore, Blair could not directly address them. You're right that it's not an indictment per the word's definition.

    For reference, you're considered Jewish if your mother is Jewish. (And if your mother isn't jewish, you're not necessarily considered jewish) But anyway, away from the derail...

    If we're going to go bonkers with speculation (it's happened many a time in the thread!), we might as well put out the "impossible to prove, but it's possible" theory that Deco is smuggling drugs into the country. If that's true, I would posit that it's probably how Doug Jr. got his blocks of...

    I'm going to be a bit unfair and "armchair psychologist" here but, it's probably the only thing that makes him distinct. He's not a remarkable guy in any way, and from the looks of it in his family he was always way behind everyone else and had a lot to live up to. At some point he became known...

    Let's not forget what Towhey said - when he was ultimately fired, it wasn't the first time that the Mayor freaked out at him on the telephone and fired him. Towhey showed up to work the next day assuming he was just upset and didn't mean it, since it had happened that way so many other times.

    I have to say, it doesn't sit right that all of these private residences are getting mapped out. Yes, you can make the case that the info is publicly available... but still, it almost lends credence to the statements that Doug Ford makes when he says his family is being spied on or is losing...

    OK - you know what, you need to read more critically and more carefully. Just because the article says that Ford wasn't mentioned by name in the surveillance reports of that day, it doesn't mean they did not see him. Typical Police MO would actually be to use a code name known only to a...

    Which will cost us $1 billion +, instead of a fully-funded LRT line that would serve more people. The ultimate irony is that you won't even be able to eliminate the surface bus transit because of the distance between stations!! I'm pretty sure that's $300million + per year that we could have...

    Journalists don't report on hearsay - they write and report about things that can be verified to be true by multiple sources. They are not speculators. For example, someone might reek of being corrupt - but without verifiable evidence to prove that they're corrupt, you won't hear about it in...
