The organizers of the upcoming Beaches Easter Parade have asked politicians to stay away. Officials said they want the parade to be about community and families, and not about the hotly-contested mayoral race. Mayor Rob Ford said he’ll respect the decision and will donate the 10,000 eggs he bought to the Lakeshore Lions Club.
That's right! Can't forget the visit to Bruno Bellissino.Bravo! Bellissimo!
And we have a new troll, your comments would be genuine if you bothered to quote in context, but alas you haven't seen fit to do so, pity. It was a nice try though, however, you should not be discouraged, practice makes perfect.

Were these eggs paid for by Ford, the Ford campaign, or Deco? And if they are given out, are they not a promotion for Ford?
I'm a great believer in smoke alarms and sprinklers.
Maybe it's just died down. I've been on Barbados only for the last couple of weeks, and for the month before that it was the Cayman Islands. Not a word on Ford.
The "win a date" was a fake, and Doug Ford is pissed (or so twitter tells me).
That's true, but I haven't the foggiest idea why they blame people who live here. We have nothing to do with what's reported in the media. I have upon occasion challenged people when they say "I hate Toronto!" by first asking if they've ever been there. Some haven't but the ones who have generally gripe about traffic and crowds. I think they feel a little panic when they try to drive in the city. I end up sounding the the tourism board when I tell them that they missed all the best parts.
Yes, really. Who said you need to travel to talk to people outside of Canada? There is this amazing thing called the Internet; let me tell you about it! From the comfort of your computer, people from all over the world can write to each other on these things called "message boards". You can speak to someone in the U.K., or Japan, or South America, anywhere - instantly! Although I have done my fair share of travel and I've heard some interesting perspectives about Canada during face to face interactions, most of my conversations with people outside the border is done this way. People will say the darnedest things when they think they are anonymous.

The Star did an article on this two days ago - it's a province-wide thing - anyone can donate and receive a rebate across municipal lines....
