Still thinks he's mayor.

Robbie has "cancer"? When did this happen? Of course he has cancer, but according to the Ford Family and followers he has "cancer", it's said with a 50's whisper to emphasize the "bad word".
To let parents know what influences their kids are exposed to (a creepy old man offering gifts) by the TDSB.
But should the Family and followers use it to excuse assholish/prickish attitude/actions. "I do it all for the kids.", "I give everything to the people.", "It's the disease.", "cancer", etc... cancer is a fact, but using it as a tool to be allowed to be a tool, that is insulting to the people and family who are dealing serious matters as such.

Whether he has cancer is irrelevant - his transgressions happened before his diagnosis and besides cancer doesn't make you an ass. His constant trotting out of the disease as an excuse is despicable and does major disservice to those with the illness. From his comments about public health care, he won't give a sh*t if someone couldn't pay for the treatment.

Do kids still use (any) cards attached with a clothes pin to a bike to make a sound from the spokes?

They need to pass some anti filibuster rules asap. Ford is clearly abusing the process. How much have all the unnecessary recorded votes and holds cost in staff time?

He sure doesn't have many friends left. Good!

This is good. it's in their "City Hall Blog" section so it's allowed to be more feisty than a straight article. Must tweet thanks to Jennifer Pagliaro -- aka "Jennifer from the Toronto Star"
-- she's one of the good ones.

I am impressed with how the media has been on his case a lot more in the past few days. He used to be the "teflon mayor" and got away with this nonsense.

His own? Naw, he'll be busy arguing at Heaven's Gate that nothing was his fault. And I don't mean the movie.

It's gob -smacking beyond .belief that he didn't know about the costs of the subway. The cost of everything and subways subways subways are cornerstones of his own political career, fer chrissakes! You'd think he'd take an interest.
Hiding behind the minions or saying he wasn't told evidently means he wasn't asking any questions of his own at the time.

So yeah, council is still going on and they are debating Rob's apology. Mammo is sticking up for him, saying that he forgot how many time he has apologized because of the drugs and alcohol...
Needless to say, council is done for the night.

If I may borrow a phrase, perhaps he didn't ask the right question.
