You're right, the article is lacking in information. It doesn't state anything about the judge setting a date for them to reconvene. So maybe we should just assume that a week was granted? Who knows.
we all know that giroux is eligible for retirement at the end of this year, right?

One would think so, but the TPA (which is the power behind the TPS throne) have demonstrated time and again that they will not countenance any such house cleaning. It would take an extraordinarily strong politician (i.e. not a Toronto mayor) to effectively clean house at the TPS. It would also get very, very messy. I'm not sure that it could be accomplished by any politician. It's *THAT* bad.
Regarding Lisi, Ford said that he doesn't throw his friends under the bus. And today Doug Ford said Councillor Ainslie threw his constituents under the streetcar.
What's with the Ford's obsession with throwing people under moving vehicles?
Can't forget "gravy train". They speak in slogan.
Good Lord, how could I have forgotten "gravy train" ? Rob's platform slogan. Shame on me.
Everything is a catch phrase with the Ford boys. They simply can't speak without:
win,win
skin in the game
throw someone under bus/subway
average guys
folks
respect for the taxpayer
subways, subways, subways
There is about 20 phrases they use over and over, it's quite sad really. I'm sure others can come up with more.
The worst, the worst, is Rob's insane habit of repeating words for emphasis. Does it literally every speech.
