Why is Rob Fords personal life a factor in peoples factor to vote for him? Now I'm not saying everything he says is right, but from what I see most people vote agaisnt Ford based on his background and his "hot temper" not based on his policies. My Law teacher today launched a massive rant agaisnt Mr. Ford, funny enough not mentioning ANY of his policies she disagrees with. I asked her why she was voting agaisnt Ford. She said "well because he is a drunk idiot who beats his wife. Toronto needs a mayor that will look presentable to the rest of the world and to make this city "shiny". I didn't bother argue.
It's amazing how me, a 19 year old nobody can make an intelligent vote based on ones policies, not based on their lifestyle. I will vote Mr. Ford because he tells it like it is. I live in Brampton (will be moving to Toronto soon) and I see what kind of laughable taxes my relatives pay who live in North York and Scarborough. We don't need and LRT clogging up streets, and we don't need a Mayor handling our money, our funding and budgets who has a history of mishandling money (ehealth, lhinis, hydro) and who has neglected funding for Toronto during his tenure as an MPP.
