Grey Goose? That's gravy! (Bonus points to all who get the pun)
Yes, for some reason I was thinking that they were discussing pre-crack tape revelation times. My mistake!My guess would be the time they spent trying to get the Lisi ITO released.
while i don't disagree that jets and brothels would further compromise the island, i will argue its place as our "most treasured" green spaceWhy are so many people so anxious to ruin arguably, the most treasured green space we have in Toronto? Jets and now brothels.

high park and rouge park, the don valley and humber valley -- these are equally treasured by those of us who don't enjoy cramming ourselves like sardines on a ferry to spend the day amongst screaming kids and litterers
thank $deity that rob ford never goes down in the ravines
oh, wait...

Yes but if the BB airport was removed and the land was made part of Toronto's 'emerald necklace' park system imagine how accessible it would be. A pedestrian bridge would see little opposition if that had ever been proposed.
Anyone who doesn't understand that this property would be prime Condo country is not paying attention. Developers spinning their web to Yacht Club members would have a powerful lobby onside making approval of a vehicle bridge a distinct possibility if not a slam dunk. Sorry park people, money talks.Yes but if the BB airport was removed and the land was made part of Toronto's 'emerald necklace' park system imagine how accessible it would be.

You're completely disingenuous, Bennett000. After making a big show of how the search function on UT doesn't show anyone wishing death on Ford, I, as promised, did my own sleuthing and have returned with the results. Well, I didn't have to look very far (took me about 20 minutes).
There are at least three high-activity UT users who have made comments wishing for Ford's death. Interestingly enough, one is a moderator - AlvinofDiaspar - and has posted multiple times about wanting Ford's death. When you have a moderator of UT posting in favor of Ford's death, that's about as explicit an encouragement that you can get.
Then there's vox:
And MTown:
These aren't "New Users". They're among the most frequent and active users on this thread.
Now, they can say whatever they want. I've got no problem with that. What I've got a problem with is you trying to disingenuously pretend like these things aren't said, when they readily are even by moderators.
And once again we've ventured into the dark, tasteless depths of people on this forum.
You can hate his politics, but never forget that the man is a brother, son, husband and father.
... and this is coming from someone who hates and detests his politics and mayoralty.
Also, who wished death on Ford, and was acknowledged and/or encouraged?
You discredited yourself by posting after you said you wouldn't post anymore. I had nothing to do with that.You can't have your cake and eat it too. You can't pretend like UT is a place for high-minded discussion and insight when users and moderators alike are engaging in unchecked vitriol and extremism. And to attempt to discredit me as a liar/nonsensical for pointing this out is truly pathetic.
Ford Nation is essentially revenge of the high-school dropouts, and I don't mean the ones with initiative.
Ford Nation is not socially conservative at all. They condone hard drugs, impaired driving, wife-beating, phallic hats, hanging out with known felons, and dancing in the middle of church service.

What about this story the Post is pushing, about the Star pressuring people to sign a letter against Ford and threatening to publish the names of those who don't?
Yes, I agree. FN gets too much press as it is. No one is interviewing the *at least* 60% of us who would never ever ever vote for that moron never ever ever.....I don't think it was quite like that. I think it was more along the lines of "Do you think Mayor Ford is still qualified to be mayor and beyond that what are your comments on the situation? We'll publish any comments or lack thereof".
Personally I think it was stupid and I wish they hadn't done it. Thestar shouldn't really be TRYING to give Ford Nation ammunition for their conspiracy theories.
