Rob Ford's Toronto

[penelope_sch]

Um, it's just ITO info going public, no?

I suspect it's possibly that - which means reporters will be busy pouring over the details & Doug providing 'proof' of rehab. Wouldn't read more than this into it...that will keep them busy enough, I reckon.

 

[kbdid]

It is. This is the initial investigation that spawned Brazen 2.

I get that, but have they ever released docs on this before?

I suspect that the family thought the optics of a married politician are better than those of an unmarried one.

Plus, it's Rob. He's a boorish ass of a man, who even if he looked like George Clooney would have issues keeping any rational woman. When pickings are slim, you've gotta hold on to what you find.

Yep probably. And also unmarried=gay, right?

No. Just the evidence list.

When John Lancaster mentions the '11th hour', does anyone have a timeline to put this in context?

 

[fishie]

I thought the same but he did say "Also, it looks like they are waiting til the 11th hour to release documents"

Sounds like something else but I have no idea. It might be in reference to Doug's 'proof' of rehab (which will probably just be a picture of robbie on treadmill while Eye of the Tiger plays in the background)

And reading today's Sun...

Maybe he is doing the "bad news Friday" - governments tend to release news that is unfavourable to them on Fridays hoping that they can ride out the weekend and have the issue dropped from the public radar by Monday.

Possibly. But us UT'ers don't sleep and don't take weekends off

My misunderstanding. Thanks for clarifying.

No problem, and no offence was meant originally. That's on me to be clear, not on others to have to understand what I was saying when it wasn't clear.

That's how I read it too, lots more info coming from the ITO dump, it's going to keep them busy poring through the documents like the last few times that's happened.

Someone on another forum just said Rob was on a Vancouver radio station and that it was weed in the pipe. Trying to confirm.

Edit : Team 1040. Can someone listen to it online?

 

[Outside Looking In]

Didn't I say slobo is in the run. Rehab is a ruse. Oh, where's Thug!

This could be thee MOST POLITICAL AFTERNOON, EVER!

Put the points of connection on the dots

Good one, lol!

Rob was on the radio TODAY?

That's what I saw. I am not home and I asked if he was serious. If anyone can listen to team 1040 in Vancouver online, I'm sure they'll talk about it if it happened.
