I have the same suspicion, plus:
1) connection to ndragheta
2) use of mayors office to award contracts to preferred vendors
3) kickbacks (via Manila envelopes late at night)
4) use if family business as a shipping depot for questionable products!
5) running his own crew!
6) etc.
OPP don't investigate drinking and pissing in a park!
My Columbo senses are tingling.

I have always suspected 2 & 3, and apart from Daniel Dale asking Ford in a recent presser what was in those envelopes, it is something that the media by in large has ignored. It is also something that I believe would have the biggest ripple effect across the municipal (and potentially provincial and federal) landscape with other politicians involved.

I am of the same opinion, plus I think he may have ties to underage sex trade via his days as a coach.

Just an aside, I have no connection to this guy's facebook, I found him by googling Weaponized bedbugs

Shudder, I used to work in a hotel where a room ended up with bedbugs, it took forever to get the room sterilized and safe again. It was caught quickly so no other rooms were affected. Still they are gross, so are lice. I cringe whenever a school notice comes home about lice in the elementary school.

Quick question - when was your apartment building built?

Has anyone confirmed Joe W's report yet? He's probably right, but he plays pretty fast and loose with the facts. I won't take him at his word. Joe W's scoops don't always go somewhere.

It's old. Isn't 1990 the rent control cutoff?

My two cents about the envelopes. I think it was weed and blow. Why would Lisi be delivering kickbacks? Also, Lisi went to the cleaners just before one of the observed exchanges. Sometimes booze too I would think.

Profits from the weed sold from the Cleaners perhaps.

There are multiple cutoffs, any of:
(a) it was not occupied for any purpose before June 17, 1998;
(b) it is a rental unit no part of which has been previously rented since July 29, 1975; or
(c) no part of the building, mobile home park or land lease community was occupied for residential purposes before November 1, 1991.
RTA 2006, c. 17, s. 6 (2).
Now this is for the "rent increase limit guideline", I don't know if that's what you mean by "rent control".
Oh, I think I have to mention Ford to remain on topic. So, how about that guy, eh?
