Rob Ford's Toronto

blogTO -The wasteland of the gods at Muzik Nightclub by Ed Conroy May 10th.

Mythical Toronto sculptor Elford Bradley "E.B" Cox (1914-2003) would likely be appalled to see what has happened to one of his greatest collections of work - The Garden of the Greek Gods - donated to the City of Toronto and displayed at the CNE since 1979.

Nightclub Muzik has absorbed almost all of them as part of their extended patio, and these historic Canadian sculptures are now off-limits to anyone not frequenting the property of this 19+ only bar. Their intended audience - children - can no longer interact with them at all. Aside from losing these beautiful public sculptures to a private establishment, it's troubling to imagine them as impromptu perches for Smirnoff Ice and Bud Light Lime.

The Globe does an awesome job on these types of stories.

The Globe had two similar stories about dodgy dealings between the city, Fords and Apollo.
Has this ever been looked at by the integrity commissioner?
It's an obvious CoI where Deco earned millions with.
 
I see 2 takeaways from this:

1. The Fords' are clearly corrupt and don't believe that conflicts of interrst apply to them
2. The Fords' are sloppy in their execution and really suck at corruption

I bet there's more where this came from too! Also, imagine what these guys would've gotten up to if media wasn't all over them?
