Rob Ford's Toronto

[dforthandbview]

From Reddit:
Buddy of mine was there too. Said a couple people spotted Ford and were yelling his name. Woman was crossing the street and apparently looking at Ford and/or the people calling his name when she was hit.

yeah, and unfortunately a woman was hit/killed by a streetcar about an hour ago. That sure looks like him - he is in this area often.

You mean this one from 2 weeks ago. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/pedestrian-dead-after-streetcar-accident-1.2771057

I have you blocked but I can't figure out why you still think trolling will give you a popular reputation.

this is so so bad. I do so hope it wasn't a case of someone not paying attention because of a Ford sighting.

well, it would look pretty bad if he took off, but I wonder just how he could assist anyway - by calling someone?

He gets his hair dye in bulk from the movie theater concession suppliers. it's the same stuff they put on the popcorn.

That makes a lot of sense... artificial colours have been known to cause cellular damage.

US Networks are following:

"I work with NBC News in the United States, could we have permission to use your photos of the accident across all platforms?"

And he's obviously on the phone with Doug giving him intel so Doug can use this as an example of the St.Clair streetcar disaster and why we need subways.

"I'm way behind the the polls. Politicizing a tragic streetcar accident in 3...2...1..."

One reporter tweeted that Robbie said he called Andy Byford.

Since when do news outlets ask for permission to use photos? Just use the photo and give credit. Strange tweet.

Tory was on the board of directors from 2001 to 2009. In 2009 the company did a pre-packaged Chapter 11 filing, which eliminated the existing shares (they were worth nil) and some of the company's debt. Chapter 11 is called 'bankruptcy protection" in the US. So, expect: "Bankruptcy, bankruptcy, bankruptcy folks! Caused by Tory! And he tried to hide this! Bankruptcy, bankruptcy, bankruptcy! You can't trust him with your hard-earned taxpayers money! Did I mention bankruptcy folks?!"

Not too surprising a US company went tits-up during the "panic", many did... usual anorexic proof from Doug. No doubt he will bring up Deco; however, Charter was a publicly traded company which sold services to the public, Deco was/is not.

For fucks sake, the current mayor smokes crack. Or has everyone forgotten?

Kelly smokes crack? or do you mean Dougie?

Rob's self importance is adorable.
