From a random sample of the poster's history. Also, the handle: tomedic99.

From what KK is saying about this on Twitter, I thought that was the user name of someone replying to the original post. (On the copy we have a link to for. Here the user name of the original poster Is deleted. From searches being done by KK it seems that tomedic99 is an EMS person in Orangeviille.

ETA: Sorry, I seem to be somewhat off the back of the UT peloton at the moment!

That's OK - almost every divergence has eventually linked back to the head of the line - this stuff is so interwoven it's frightening - makes me think that it's a small world, and we can't get off

I'm at city hall and the media seem to be upset with security. It seems they were a little too aggressive today. Stay tuned. Also, Ford took the elevator up to his office but Amin took the stairs, media followed him and were peppering him with questions about why Ford won't talk. CBC's Strashin, especially, was visibly upset.

Might the WayBackMachine have archived some of the posts to that Reddit thread that have since been deleted?

Wow, again, after the article just came out yesterday?! Or maybe because it came out yesterday.

Oh I hope this gets retweeted WIDELY. Perfect close up of her homophobic face and a Ford Nation tee proudly on display.

Between Proskow, Strashin, Dale, Peat and Pagliaro, they are getting more annoyed and will hopefully keep it up.

Maybe tomedic99 is gay. Homophobe!

Obviously...

 

[sweetlou]

is that sweetlou?

Yes, with a new more legible Gary Giroux sign. But someone else with the pink umbrella a few posts ago. Still less than a handful of protestors.

ETA: date on post is 11 May

Thank you! I wasn't dreaming! If true, this would explain Rob's sending McRobb's truck to his auto body shop and loaning her his Escalade.

Back to lurking now - thank you for hours and hours of fascinating reading UT!

Same woman was raging in front of the PanAm Event stage with some others, got extensively recorded. Interrupted the calm, measured and factual media interview being given by Pink Umbrella Woman. Yelling about Sodom and Gomorrah and how LGBTQs are a 'special interest group'. Raged on for quite some time.
