The beating and connection to Ford vis a vis McIntyre isn't new, but the allegation that it was Don Bosco alumni who might have carried out the beating is something I hadn't heard before today.

I was under the impression that this was a forgone conclusion. When Nisar Hashimi accepted a plea deal for manslaughter, the consensus from a few lawyers in the press and on twitter was that the charges against Mohamed would be dropped.

I'm not sure what to make of this. This individual generally rants on twitter and his blog about the persecution of Rob Ford and the indoctrination of Marxism into youth at the TDSB. I'd be surprised if he were the one leaking damaging (though believable) claims about Ford.

Hours before he was videoed at Steak Queen, Ford was busy telling about 40 editors from ethnic newspapers that he had quit drinking. This might make his pandering to ethnic communities harder to pull off...

Something that's been bugging me about this latest twist in the Lisi/Ford storyline. As much as I hope it to be true that the reason for Lisi being seen with Ford at Steak Queen was part of a sting, I'm wondering why this is the angle the police are taking with Ford? If we accept that it almost...

Not sure if you have been asked this already, but what is your opinion on the view that Lisi is working with police on Brazen 2?

Seems less likely Lisi is witnessing on Ford after seeing them together at Steak Queen.

No surprise that Ford did not heed the sage advice, and instead hit the funeral with fridge magnets.

I see it as easy to spin this way: Paper has knowledge that the Mayor is involved in criminal activity, and has criminal associations. It isn't required to be impartial or deferential to the Mayor based on this information they possess. The Star proceeds with the view that he is corrupt. The...

Found this nice rant by an individual upset at the torrent of public support for the homophobic Duck Dynasty guy. What struck me about his rant was how easily it applies to our own little abomination with Ford, his Nation, and Toronto. His main concern is how the characters on the show are...

I agree if there's a story waiting to drop, it might make sense to wait until the Dale story draws down. But I have to disagree with you about it being toxic if it were the Star to be the only paper to lead with a new revelation. At this point, the Star-led conspiracy narrative is one that is...

So it's been about 10 days since the Matlow Escort tweet, and other cryptic predictions about another wave of Ford scandal to wash over Toronto. Some hypothesized the papers were sitting on a story until the Mandela funeral had exited the news cycle. If they are indeed sitting on something...

It's a detailed voter database compiled by the Conservative Party that can be used to identify voter intentions. Was used in the 2010 federal election to send out misleading robocalls to non-conservative voters saying their polling locations had changed

Could have fooled me by the way you repeated Ford's thoroughly discredited claim that Dale invaded his privacy.

When Doug Ford positions this as an example of his benign charity, only the naive will buy it. Next election, he most certainly has a horse in the race; the salvation of his own political career vis a vis the survival of Rob Ford's. These donations in suburban wards are designed to boost the...

Also conveniently omits the Mayor's buddy facing charges for extortion.

It could be. The thing that doesn't fit for me is Price's reaction to the tip the video was motive for Smith's murder. If he were so intimately involved in the retrieval of the video with Lisi, wouldn't he have gone straight to Ford, not Towhey and then the police?

I'd say that 33% is more a patchwork of selfishness, fear, and anger that the world has moved on, held together by extreme gullibility and low literacy levels.

First, what you call "conspiracy theory" chatter is justified based on the type of dishonest and slimy persons the Fords have proven themselves to be. So many violent acts have occurred to a number of people associated with the video, and the idea the Fords could be linked to them is not...

My experience with you and Peepers has been that you rarely acknowledge the substance of rebuttals which refute your arguments. As for issues, plenty of people discuss issues on this board. They do so by defending opinions using facts and insights, and others support, or refute those opinions...
