I want this to be true just so we can finally get his rear end out of office. What was the judge's reasoning for letting him stay in last time?

PT6A posted:Remind me why being in Alberta is a bad thing, again? Other than stereotypes and misinformation, of course. Setting aside the tarsands, it might be because we're essentially a one party province where middling vaguely sensible but still utterly toothless conservatives are giving way to the Wildrose? Or maybe because a lot of our urban design is a disaster? Or how about the chronic inability of the province to be assertive when negotiating royalties on oil? Also we have p. bad emergency room coverage and a kind of crappy approach to care for people with chronic disabilities. That's not even getting into the kind of trans-generational shame that's bound up in poo poo like the Eugenics Board. There are all kinds of reasons to dump on Alberta, dude. There are a lot of reasons to like it too, like the immense natural beauty, Nenshi being rad as heck, and a surprisingly good local theatre scene. But that's kind of incidental to the actual topic of this thread: that amalgamation made a corrupt crack smoking racist sexist fatty the mayor of Toronto. And that's hilarious. Also, is anyone else reminded of EastEnders?

This is the same area that voted for Smitherman....Is Toronto doomed to have terrible elections? At least that casino died.

Have you ever watched the show Parks and Recreation with Amy Poehler? The show that jokes about the whacked out constituents, the dysfunctional local politicians, and the myriad of minor, inane "distraction issues" that take priority over important issues?

Eisenhower posted:EDIT: has it come to anyone's attention $100Ks are going toward a crack dealer for this video? Anyone want to be worried about that? Supposedly they'd ask for less but they want to relocate (possibly out west) because they fear reprisal from Ford's municipality and from the drug ring that they're part of. So I don't feel that bothered about the sum because relocating can be stupid expensive and it's a huge scoop. Republican Vampire fucked around with this message at 04:15 on May 18, 2013 |

Also let's be realistic and admit that the only reason why Nenshi is the mayor is because every horrible person in the city split their votes between a retired anchor woman who doesn't know poo poo about politics and a white-hot ball of Republican-style rage, leaving everybody under 40 to vote for the brown guy who nobody thought had a chance.

A lot of people figured Nenshi had a good shot and not just because of vote splitting. We might not be progressive in terms of federal politics because of the whole stupid western alienation thing, but I don't think that Nenshi won the election purely because of vote-splitting. The progressive bent of immigrants and transplants has a lot o do with it. Ford, on the other hand, pretty much won the mayoral election in Toronto because of amalgamation being terrible for the city itself. It's a false comparison.

Oh God, Robert Ford. From living near Toronto and knowing how hosed up he is I can see only two scenarios happening in the near future. Liver failure, or murder-suicide after he offs his wife. Guy is legitimately hosed up in so many ways. I remember very early in his "career" all sorts of rumors of domestic violence. I wonder if any of that poo poo will re-surface now that he's basically become all of North America's clown. Never in a million years would I expect to see U.S. press talking about him.

I voted for Ford...yeah I know I know, I don't need the lecture...but I thought he stood the best chance of actually doing something with regards to the bloated and over-entitled public sector unions. He's turned out to be a first class embarrassment, and a harm to the conservative movement in general. But Crack...When was the last time you saw a crack-smoker so fat? And wouldn't the Mayor of a world-class city at least do cocaine? I mean common now...

Chris Farley comes to mind for people who were fat who smoked crack. Seriously, I hope this is all true and the people in T.O smarten up and get rid of him. It just really insanely stupid that the people with the video think it's worth six figures. I'd give them 2 grand maybe 10 tops for it. It's also amazing how they seem to think they'll get away with being anon for any amount of time. They should just honestly upload it to youtube or something similar and enjoy the chaos.

He's doing crack instead of cocaine because he believes strongly in limited spending and financial restraint. beleives Crack dealing is also a great way for the underprivileged to bootstrap their way to financial success instead of relying on government handouts their whole life. It's about time we saw a politician practicing the same values that he preaches. As an aside, does Canada have much longer sentences for crack arrests vs. regular cocaine like the US does? etalian posted:So he's basically Bad Lieutenant?
