Rob Ford's Toronto

[John_Dee]

I don't think anyone's disputing that Renata's cut from the same cloth as her darling hubby, so "rough around the edges" is probably putting it politely.

Be that as it may, though, the threats alone should have been enough to have Slob dragged off in handcuffs after this little altercation, even if he was bullshitting about the gun. And I'd say he's long passed the point where he deserves any kind of benefit of a doubt about anything. What if he does end up shooting/killing someone in a drunken rage at some point down the road?

Indeed - recall this?

Yep! Too bad for Filion. Towhey's is bound to get way more attention.

The contrast and/or bias of the books just might increase the sales of both, so as to get a clearer picture for the readers.

As in ... rude? Ravaged by drink?

She describes her as "hard". She's polite enough but you can tell she's someone you don't want to mess with.

So his answer about "talk to those individuals" presumably refers to Rob & Renata Ford? He says Sat GTA rally is a Conservative event.

On revelations about Rob Ford, Harper says talk to "those individuals" & rally Sat is a #CPC rally not Ford rally.

Thrown under the bus!

Re first excerpt from Towhey's book. If the man had any integrity he not only would have called 911 but CAS. Screw the job when you've got mention of a gun, drugs, threats, and little kids present.

Remember Kouvalis said he threatened to call CCAS on Ford? Someone did in the end as before he went to rehab CCAS temporarily placed his kids with other family members.

On a side note, my father in law hosted Harper for a rally the day before the last election. He's such hardcore Con that we have to lie to him about who we vote for or he'd flip out lol.

Isn't today the big fat Ford wedding?

Doug is currently ranting on CTV that Trudeau is unfit for public office because he once smoked weed!

Haha considering that Harper/team famously vets the individuals attending his events, those two druggies showing up got some splaining to do.

‏@TOMayorFrod You need to move up to harder stuff to be a leader.

Seriously? Oh, man. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Dofo really doesn't possess so much as a single ounce of shame, does he?

 

[dforthandbview]

Rob talks about 'doing another smash' in the bathroom.
"smash" is drug slang for injecting drugs. He did mention heroin on the phone to Towhey. So he's shooting up heroin? Coke? Speedballs? Or is he (Rob) talking out of his ass?

Google has already Godwin'd their listing of Filion's book.

Doug Ford said that.

Doug, brother of Rob 'I smoked a lot of it' Ford.
