Rob Ford's Toronto

[Videodrome]

As for the people of Ward 2, it's bad enough Robbie's not around to represent them, but I suspect that Dan Jacobs—AKA one third of his staff—is spending an inordinate amount of his time helping Rob with personal stuff rather than taking care of Ward business . . . this based entirely on the fact that it is he who appears to be taking Rob to the hospital these days, all the while trying to make Rob look as if he's as with it as @norm is on Twitter.

Didn't they stop pretending to be like Norm?

Also, CNN is reminding me of the CP2Ford days with their wall to wall Trump coverage.

Do you just happen to have voter turnout rates for their wards? The success rate for incumbents must also include folks who assume long term incumbents are going to get returned again so why exercise your vote.

I've memorized them all. It helps me get to sleep at night.

Someone should ask him what he thinks of that now!

That's an easy one. Obama at least knows where Iran is, while Ford is in no condition to negotiate.

How would he negotiate if he didn't even read the files and showed up drunk or under influence?

He could pass the pipe?

Good point. He might also do something to offend the Iranians before negotiations even started.

How many staffers does Rob have in his office now? I heard it was Dan Jacobs plus two other people.

It's Dan Jacobs and two other people.

I almost feel sorry for his staff, almost...

Chief of Staff? Wow, someone has delusions of grandeur!

I don't think councillors have Chiefs of Staff.

Still, sounds better than Tantrum Control Officer...
