In classical times, it was a capital offense to speculate upon the hour of a king’s death, or upon the identity of his successor. Happily, we live in a more gracious age.
I was never a Rob Ford supporter, but I do not wish him poor health. Sadly, however, I suspect the tumor is malignant and Rob Ford probably has only a few years to live. Alcohol and street drugs are carcinogens; obesity can often lead to cancer. Moreover, pain and discomfort are often masked in Alcoholics and drug addicts, which leads me to believe that the cancer is not in an early stage. Hopefully, I am wrong.
I suspect Doug Ford will be defeated in his quest to become Mayor. His biggest problem is he is not Rob Ford, and he is not as well liked as his brother. I don't think he is interested in politics anymore anyways. He will probably go back to running his father's firm. John Tory will probably be elected Mayor.
