Glad that someone is willing to put their neck on the line and say that without reservations. It should have been done a long, long time ago.

What did he say to Evan Carr?
 
I'm also very disappointed in Olivia's response to this latest debate debacle. I was onside her initial response ( of sticking with this due to the topic) , but am super frustrated that she is turning her response to Tory this morning, and playing into Fords game at several levels (playing off the "What the Story, Tory line this morning!!!) . I want to support Olivia but am disappointed at her inability to deal directly with the chaos continually caused by the Fords. If she doesn't directly deal with Fords inadequacy ( to deal with multiple issues) and constant circus- causing behaviour, she will not have my vote. She had a chance to really change the tone of the city, as I believe she could have appealed to the disenfranchised within the Ford camp, but has failed to do this.

I've wondered if any journalist has gone to Chicago to find out more. How long did Doug spend there or was he back and forth?

Or even contact any Chicago journalists - I can't imagine the corruption is not present at the US Decos. Doug seems to railroad Rob in that Wonder Years older brother way of wanting to do it better because he's smarter. But he's a loose cannon. Places like Chicago and the place in Florida seem to already lend themselves to shady guys with gold chains. I could see Doug taking over Chicago and thinking he will make it better than Dad did. Only with shady folks. hah. folks.

UTS is A LOT harder to get into than UCC - you just don't show up there with a cheque in hand - you have to be smart too.

This is complete nonsense. I have been witness to a case or two where someone with, let's just say lackluster academic credibility, gained admittance, but those where cases where the cheque was in the millions. They don't just let anyone in who's willing to pay the tuition.

Spidey senses says that the Pennsauken, NJ expansion is more suspect. They bought a distressed firm in 2008 and turned it into a "vibrant" location according to DoFo's bio. But there is no reference to Deco via online sources (assume it's http://www.wisetaglabel.com/ ?). There's got to be dirt there.

Yah I don't believe this for one second. Ford supports besides Ford Nation are disgruntled probably politically disenfranchised groups in the suburbs. Many of them recent immigrants.

Recent citizens, maybe, but not recent immigrants. It takes years to get citizenship after you become a permanent resident, and people on temporary visas or permanent residency can't vote.
