Bike lanes on Bloor simply make too much sense. The BIA is asking for them, residents are asking for them, councillors are asking for them, serious research on the matter shows it would alleviate congestion and improve the business environment... you would have to be massively uneducated to oppose them on any rational grounds.
Bloor is not Jarvis.

You'd think they could have actually used a picture taken on Bloor

And the Public Works Committee voted 5-1 in favour of the EA study. Having a Study is a good idea as it allows opponents and supporters to speak and will look at the impact. Not much election ammunition here!

If Ford is being charged I guess it is for orchestrating the exchange of drugs to get his stolen phone back. Sandro Lisi has been charged with "brokering" the illegal transaction which means that police must have evidence that someone else (Ford) directed Lisi to exchange drugs for the stolen phone.
You're correct that the crack video - even if it surfaces - would not warrant charges.

Obstruct justice would be another one I would guess.

Rob's got something else to look forward to, tomorrow the letter he wrote for Lisi might be disclosed.

Oh, that's one of LeRoy St. Germaine's publications. He's somewhat new to the whole Ford Nation. He's much more "Old Man Shouting at Clouds Nation".
The Walrus did a piece on him about 4 years ago - http://walrusmagazine.com/blogs/2009/08/17/just-an-ornery-citizen/
I've talked to him a couple of times ... the guy didn't seem to be all there. And he's litigious too - http://www.torontosun.com/news/torontovotes2010/2010/10/22/15791466.html
He seems to have found a partner in his lunacy ... someone by the name of Robert James.
What amused me, is last time one landed on my door (been a while, perhaps he took my threats about suing him for trespassing seriously) I went through his "advertisers" to make sure I never give one of them another dime of business ... and I didn't actually recognize any of them ...

Why would anyone local drive on Bloor Street for more than a block or two? It's got the faster subway under it ... and it's not as convenient through downtown as many of the parallel streets. I'm convinced that most of those using it are from out-of-town and don't know any better, attracted to it by it's prominent position on a map.
