Toronto mayor admits to smoking crack


Recommended Posts

I want him to resign too. I seem to be in the minority that think someone in his position should be a role model who tries to make a positive impact on those around him. From what I understand the city council has stripped him of almost all of his powers. But of course he is going to stay on until the next election. Strange.

The prostitution and extortion bit is still "alleged" but the rest has been well-documented or confessed, I think. That's our mayor!

 

Just out of curiosity, does this mean you retain local voting rights in Toronto?

 

(Not true for Americans abroad, who can only vote in Federal elections.)

Was talking with my dad, a long term downtown Toronto dweller, about this last night. He had an interesting take on it. To quote, "He's a big fat stupid dickhead who should be fired!" It turns out though my dad is more upset that Ford has been reducing bike lanes in the city and has been pushing for a casino on the waterfront, near to where he lives. It seems the crack, booze and potty mouth don't actually upset my dad that much!

Everybody wants to jump on the casino wagon. Aus for starters, only VIP gamblers. That means invitees only (stupid gambling mad Chinese with access to black money).
