Just did a TPL search of Toronto Star and G&M archives. The only references to a "Doug Ford" before the 1980s is to the New York-based PGA golfer and to the city works commissioner (no relation, one assumes). "Douglas Ford" comes up empty as well.

Certainly, both Rob and the backup-mayor, brother Doug, inherited some of Doug Sr’s “diplomacy”.
Below is a speech Dad Ford gave in the Legislature, during the heated Megacity debates...
