Now that they are both single again, does anyone have the contact information for Emily or Barbara?
Breaking: Mayor Tory Steps Down.
- Thread starter Darts
- Start date
The Toronto "mayor killer" Star was about to break the story so Tory fell on his sword first. The Star also killed Rob "best mayor ever" Ford's career.
"Robyn Doolittle (born 13 September 1984) is a Canadian investigative reporter for The Globe and Mail. At the Toronto Star, she gained notoriety for coverage of Toronto mayor Rob Ford's political and personal life, which led to her authoring the biography Crazy Town: The Rob Ford Story (2014)"

Hahaha, that is so funny.
Rob and John were the instigators and masters of their own failures and fates and to state that some newspaper or reporters compelled them to commit the acts of self-destruction is absurd.
Next up is the The Thug.
So the Star forced Ford to smoke crack while in one of his drunken stupors? They must also have held the staffer down while Tory did his thing with her. I guess you found Ford's crack pipe in the landfill.
I honestly don't care that about what they did behind closed doors as long as they got the job done. Yet, that's not the case for either of them. They talked a lot and accomplished next to nothing.
They killed their own careers.
No doubt a butterface. My guess is she's dynamite in the bedroom!They are saying she looks like Amy Schumer.
That billion dollar subway station was such a good idea.
Sure, ya ok. The reason John Tory kept winning without even a blip was his steady hand on the wheel. Too bad he stepped into an affair instead of just using escorts dammit.

Awesome to have a Mayor that drives around the city drunk and high as a kite. LMAO
Someone who won't let the little head give orders to the big head. I. E., a woman...
aka The Gravy Train.
He couldn't find the original and mythical Gravy Train as he turned the city upside down, inside out, ass backwards looking for it ..... so he decided to manufacture his own all by himself.

Thug has a problem now as his hand made stooge puppet at city hall was charred to charcoal in a blaze of infamy.
Will Thug abrogate his own Strong Mayor powers Act to prevent a mayoral candidate not of his liking or choosing from winning the prescribed mayoral election dictated in his own act who would challenge Thug's thuggery over the city of Toronto?
Will Thug just install another hand made stooge puppet to do his bidding?
Will he abolish city council and appoint a stooge executive and administration in his own image?
Thug has a problem. When Thug has a problem, he behaves like a Thug.
Chances are if a new election is to proceed as dictated by Thug's own Act, a mayor who would actually act on the problems facing Toronto and not just sit idly by as Tory has for 8+ years, would win. This scenario would present a huge challenge and problem for Thug.
Whattools weapons will Thug reach for in his Premiers Thugs tool box to protect his turf: brass knuckles, a steel pipe, large boulders, an Acme Co. cannonball kit?

A municipality's actions, even as an employer, are subject to Charter scrutiny. That would include adopting nepotism/employee relationship policies. I agree with your observation in relation to private sector employers. There are standards to be met for those policies to be enforceable as a matter of employment law, but they aren't subject to Charter challenge.
Here's a link to Toronto Council's Code of Conduct: https://www.toronto.ca/city-government/accountability-operations-customer-service/accountability-officers/integrity-commissioner/code-of-conduct-for-members-of-council/#:~:text=Members should act with integrity,and bears close public scrutiny.
These isn't anything there that explicitly prevents politicians from having relationships with staff. There's just an obligation to avoid conflicts of interest and to act in a way that bolsters public confidence. I doubt they could have removed Tory for breach of the Code. I say this as someone who doesn't like Tory personally or like his policies for the city. (I would also concede that there are certainly FAR worse options, 2 of which have already said they are considering running). I read the Sanfiro web material that someone else linked, but frankly, like Sanfiro always is, the material is a little contradictory and superficial. Goes with the territory of representing the employee side of employment law disputes.
I think the decision to step down is ENTIRELY about Tory trying to avoid getting fleeced by a divorce. He needs to give Barb 100% of what she wants right now, including his time and the right optics, if he has any shot at that. Frankly, I'd say his chances are poor. She probably knew that John was getting serviced elsewhere (what else would an intelligent woman think when she isn't taking care of business?). Why else would she vamoose to Florida all through Covid? As usual, her "horrified" reaction is likely more about the public exposure that they have a sexless/loveless marriage than about the reality that she probably is mostly to blame for that.
The reality is that we live in a society where a woman can completely let her husband down sexually/emotionally, but men are considered to be the villains when they solve the problem their wife created.
Her decision whether to divorce Tory will be mostly about whether she's happier with 50% of his money and an open calendar vs. 100% of his money and lots of events in posh social circles. Might be a hard decision for her. It will have nothing to do with whether they can rekindle any romantic relationship, cause that's deader than Dead John A. MacDonald!
