too bad I can't favorite you...
I would imagine that come election day, based on what we know about Forum's polling procedures, Ford will garner far less than 26% of the vote. And that is without factoring in whatever is still to come.
Some of it's funny? It can actually be kind of helpful? Some don't/won't do 'The Twitters'? Those that do, and can't stomach the #topoli thread. might get its 'hi-lite reel' as opposed to its dreck? (Used to try following #topoli. Figured out it's an open tap of many, many toxic personalities. Unreadable.). And, plus, oh, relevant info and links to the ongoing 'Chronicles Of Ford'. Why is it offensive?
r/toronto has some good thoughts, too (Though there seems to be a shunning of that by some).
TL/DR?: Useful/Humorous/'Breaking/.
I wouldn't call it a dump, probably more like a "best of Twitter" on anything pertaining to RoFo. And I quite like it. Makes this forum like a one stop shop for all things RoFo.
I think it is Mckeachern
I think it is McEachern
It says that bob was a former addict that is known for helping many high profile people. It doesn't really say what his qualifications are specifically. Just that he has personal experience with substance abuse.
Ford very quickly co-opted Jerry the Driver. I suspect he'll do the same to Michael the Sobriety Coach, especially if Michael is on the payroll, as reported.
Bob Marier is recovering addict assigned to keep the mayor sober
if that's true, then graeme was not the guy that left greenestone with ford / in ford's car.

so... was it bob in the car with ford?
what's graeme's last name?
Isn't that classic conservatism. They love the "tell it as it is" politically incorrect blow hard, until they "tell it as it is" against you. How often do we see somebody support the "anti-gay" movement in the States, until their kid comes out of the closet and all of a sudden the same person believes in gay rights.
I looked a bit closer at today Forum numbers and it should be title, "I went to rehab and nobody gave a F". Ford approval is still at 31%, worst of all candidates (from April to now 46, 38, 28,32, current 31%) Compare that too Tory 63% and Chow 57%. In a five way race Ford drops to third with Chow leading with 36%, Tory 27%, Ford 26%, Soknacki 4%, Stintz 3%. In a top three race Chow leads with 38%, Tory 30% and Ford 28%. These numbers have been very consistent.
What is interesting is his "rehab numbers" (you will see a pattern) Will you vote for Ford? (Yes-26%, 69%-No). Will you vote for Ford if he stays clean? (Yes-26%, No-67%). Do you think Ford will stay clean? (Yes-26%, No-57%). Should Ford resign Yes-62% (up from 58%) Satisfactory explanation and apology (Yes-34%, No-60%). Can be effective Mayor battling alcoholism (Yes-34%, No-61%). Should Ford get his stripped responsibilities back (Yes-32%, No-63%).
What really shows the camps are stuck. The 25% Ford people will vote for Ford no matter what, it doesn't matter if he is a junkie or not. They will vote for him. But the big story is that it seems that not many care if he stays sober or not. The numbers of will you vote for him and will you vote for him if he's sober it doesn't change. It's also interesting that there are some people that forgive him and wants him to finish his term but still say will not vote for him this elections. Why 32% think he should get his powers back but only 26% say will vote for him even if he's sober. Ford looks like he got a 25% that will support him no matter what (unless the bottom totally falls out) but it looks like under any circumstance he can break 30%.
