Rob Ford's Toronto

[Cooper]

Hiding behind the minions or saying he wasn't told evidently means he wasn't asking any questions of his own at the time.

If I may borrow a phrase, perhaps he didn't ask the right question.

Gee, one man using a disease to garner votes... and then there is a light that goes out:

Toronto singer and cancer charity fundraiser Carley Allison has died

I think this whole Ford apology thing is getting ridiculous at this point. Let's just move on. He's old news. How about council focus on more important things?
As Josh Matlow said: Only in Canada would a city council spend so many hours, over so many years, debating what's the most acceptable way to say "sorry".

I agree! He will just have to apologize again for some crude remark anyway...

You do know what topic this is don't you?

HA! Good one, Cooper.

Do we know when Rob is going to make his momentous announcement about his tumour's potential future home in an OR specimen bucket?

He gets the results tomorrow.

No idea. But I think the odds favour the specimen bucket. The only reason not to do surgery is that it would kill him, no? His odds of cure aren't great, but some cutting could at least prolong his life, couldn't it? Or am I giving the scalpel too much credit?

Ford has said he get results tomorrow, as has been posted. The whole "cancer" (yes, in quotes) is just to highlight his use of his illness as a tactic, not to question his diagnosis. He skips important votes or debates, then brings up his illness to deflect.

Do kids still use (any) cards attached with a clothes pin to a bike to make a sound from the spokes?

They have apps for that now

Ding ding ding for the prize Cooper!

One person's take on a funeral/visitation Rob Ford DID attend -- that of Oakville councillor Max Khan on Monday:

So is he on a funeral tour? And what ties did he have to Khan?
