From what I can gather by asking if someone is supporting him it would be considered a political call (campaigning), Since these calls are govern by CRTC they will not be tied to campaigning for the event as the city can only deal with the event itself not the invitations leading to it. So as usual the Fords have found a way around the laws. I believe there is someone else behind the scenes pulling the major strings in all of this. Doug may be pulling Rob's but Someone who knows how to walk on the fine line of the laws with out really breaking them. Someone that knows how to use every little loophole to their advantage is really running the show. I do not think either Rob or Doug are smart enough to do that. This is just IMHO
Alternatively, Slob and Thug are simply barrelling their way through as usual, not worrying themselves about such trifling, insignificant details like "rules" or "laws" because they assume, also as usual, that they're not going to be held accountable in any meaningful way. And as recent developments clearly show, every supposed watchdog, the entire city bureuacracy and the invertebrates Slob's running against for Mayor all seem hellbent on proving them right.
Now, Hotmail Lawyer just might possess enough cunning to advise them as you suggest, though I strongly suspect it's mostly just our two bullyboys doing whatever the hell they damn well please, and to hell with the consequences. Again, as usual. Sadly enough. Maybe it's a little from Column (A.) and a little from Column (B.)?
