in my view it speaks volumes about the IQ of residents of Scarborough and Etobicoke.
Breaking : Rob Ford has finally admitted to smoking crack cocaine
- Thread starter Fred Zed
- Start date
Suppose the mayor had been recorded snorting coke through a thousand dollar bill then what? I am of the opinion that alot more cocaine is being consumed by others in positions of authority and high industry than we imagine.
What a bunch of crap. He hasn't managed this city his made up numbers are bullshit. Toronto deserves and needs better. He will continue to bully, undermine his adversaries and lie to everyone in his life and in Toronto.
Ford reminds me a bit of some football player down in the states, Richie Incognito, who just got suspended by the Miami Dolphins for bullying a teammate.
It's long past time Council referred his conduct to the Integrity Commissioner to report on with all deliberate speed and begin the process of sanctioning his improper and unworthy behaviour in office. The serial lying about his drunken and/or drugged state at public events, and in his office (remember Adam Giambrone?) would be a good place to start. With the wisdom acquired from the previous CofI case, Council would likely not mishandle any sanction it chose to apply this time.
Certainly a Mayor who thinks losing your job for putting your head on a desk is not enough—his manager needed to be fired as well, according to Rob—would be unlikely to mount a sincere, substantiated and compelling argument that he's entitled to hang onto his. So far his entire defence and Rehab Plan amounts to, "I love my job".

This is the Toronto Esciort Review Board, we can't really complain about anyone going to a massage parlour.
And you are wrong as usual - Layton was NOT arrested.
The fact is that is not a fact but your opinion.
To really insult you should say, "More name calling, just shows once again how much like Ford you are"
That's not what this thread is for. But if you really want, we can start filling up posts with his terrible policies. Transit, Portlands development, social assistance, Conflicts of Interest....the only competence he's shown has been his policy of lying about everything.
It's also convenient that no one even mentions any more his awful performance with the casino attempt. What should have been a slam-dunk turned into just one more opportunity for the Ford circus to spew such utter garbage, exaggerations and lies that no one could believe anything he said about the cost, about how many jobs would open up, or anything and his ineptitude at negotiating ended up with him unable to convince council (and the public) to vote in favour of it.

If true, that would say far more about Toronto voters. They already elected a known serial liar and drug-user with a record of disorderly conduct in public.acutus said:
So far there are no actual stats that suggest he would be re-elected. Not surprising, as there's nothing like a known slate for voters to pick from. Try to keep your fan-boy enthusiasm on the level of reasonable surmise.
As a f'rinstance that might well include the possibility that Ford Nationals might discover that they couldn't twice vote for a lying druggie who won't get treatment once they were in the privacy of the voting booth. Not and admit it afterwards. Something about fool me twice.
I find Rob Ford to be a buffoon and a reactionary. I also think he's very bad for Toronto and its image.
That said, it's gotten to the point that I actually feel sorry for the guy as he's obviously got serious substance abuse and mental health issues. Finding out that he commits suicide at some point wouldn't surprise me at all. This guy needs help and if he's not going to get it himself then the people around him need to stage an intervention and get him the help he so desperately needs.

I can sleep well with my taxes in Ford's hands than the administration before him...
I truly don't understand where that belief comes from. Now we have hard evidence that he's been lying about so much, and
1. dropped out of Carleton U after 1 year in business program
2. has never run a business or worked in any capacity wrt finances
3. has never even held a real job.
So I don't understand why anyone would think Ford is in any way competent to lead what is basically a corporation with an annual operating budget of around $9 billion. Nothing in his background shows any aptitude or even interest in managing finances. Most of what he claimed about the casino was bullshit. He has wasted millions over subways and has put the taxpayers on the hook for billions which will be need to be paid off over the next few decades.
Oh yeah there's also this, from a Conservative councilor and CA:

We don't know everything yet, he says he doesn't even remember how he found himself smoking crack. What else doesn't he remember doing. So many addicts I've known behave precisely this way. They are shocked to learn what they did under the influence and actually don't remember doing it. The distinction between lying and telling the truth is meaningless to an individual who is not in control of his actions. His life is in danger.
Also interesting is the high percentage of green cheese NASA found in the moon rocks.
I do not believe crack falls into the binge category
I doubt that you can binge on crack then go long periods without it
my understanding is it is highly addictive and you need to take it several times a day so how can ford run a long meeting ????
Does he smoke in his office throughout the day without staff smelling it ???
I say give addicts their drugs so they can function and not fund organized crime
