Rob Ford's Toronto

[pud99]

@goldsbie: I can say for certain that I witnessed Jeff Silverstein present a form to register Doug for mayor. The elections officer couldn't accept it.

Seems problem is that Silverstain needed to get the papers sworn to before a commissioner for oaths or a notary because he is filing them for DF, not for himself. Easily fixed within the time available.

It may be that Silverstain did not yet file RF papers to run in Ward 2 because he knows they have the same problem. Again, easily fixed before 2pm.

Doug Ford's name not officially on the ballot for mayor. Appears trouble is with his papers, for which they needed an oath commissioned.

Again Fords can't read rules or follow them.

The candidate list here is updated almost as fast as the news, no Doug yet.

I can believe that the doctor have given them best case/worst case scenarios, but I don't believe they know yet regarding potential malignancy.

They already knew about it scenario is looking mightily attractive right now.

Any chance that there's a huge line up at the desk when they come back?

Come on Toronto! Time to go register for mayor even if you don't have the right paperwork.

Get to the desk and ASK LOTS OF QUESTIONS!

LOL that would be hilarious if a bunch of Ford haters ran to city hall right now to register for mayor, so Doug couldn't make it cause of a line up.

Every lawyer called to the bar can act as a commissioner for oaths, so this really is an easy one.

I doubt that the Finch subway would have helped him.

The real thing I'm hoping for has nothing to do with Doug, but rather that Rob doesn't re-register in Ward 2.

Silverstein just came back to file more papers.

How is IHOWOMRF reacting?

Every lawyer in Ontario is a commissioner for oaths and a notary. There are, literally, 1,000s of lawyers within a 1 km radius of CH - and some at CH (City Solicitor's office).
