Rob Ford's Toronto

[John_Dee]

I just watched the video. He very clearly and unambiguously knocks the woman over while trying to charge at a third party. It's not confusing at all. He's an out of control bull moose.

Isn't this the sort of thing that attracts the notice of the police when we filthy peons get up to such shenanigans?

Six uniformed officers apparently en route to the council chambers.

You're scaring me.

[Jado]

You mean the 'Yeah, I know I'm being an asshole' expression, or the 'This is my red-faced drunk impression' aspect?

LOL - to be sure he has a whole litany of facial expressions (belying the emptiness within). I was referring to the "Ooh! Ooh! Can't wait!!!" expression in the hot knives cartoon

 

[dforthandbview]

Anyone know if the council meeting is being broadcasted in the rotunda?

 

[TheTigerMaster]

...and video. Brace yourselves.

This isn’t a crisis of governance. It’s a crisis of collective reason: of our ability to form reasoned judgments as a community.

Doug is calling for an election NOW!!!

 

[Voltz]

So it's 138,000 phone calls that Ford's has returned now.

 

[TOvp]

Doug Ford's repeatedly using various conjugations of "trample" after the McConnell incidence is mind boggling.

 

[the lemur]

Rob is now taking credit for picking McConnell up after knocking her over, when it was his staff who did the picking up.

 

[James_D]

Doug has now clarified that his motion for an election is for all of council.

 

[PinkLucy]

Doug has now clarified that his motion for an election is for all of council.

He just amended it based on Mammo's request to be for mayor only

 

[ChesterCopperpot]

Doug has now clarified that his motion for an election is for all of council.

And he's changed it again - just for the mayor now

Ford just said that he thought Doug was getting into an altercation with someone.
