This thing is turning into a circus.

The guy is a comedian. What do you expect?

If the real video comes out, Ford supporters will declare it a fake based on this one.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is where that clip comes from:
[video=youtube;dnT-ZI_zvdQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=dnT-ZI_zvdQ[/video]
And here is the article it is sourced from: http://o.canada.com/2013/05/27/how-the-rob-ford-crack-video-could-be-faked/
Kenny Hotz is a comedy genius that knows how to create a stir. He probably saw this and naturally saw instant mischief value.....Notice he found the most convincing 2 second bit and went with it.

His head is disproportionately larger than the rest of his body - don't even need to play the video to see that it is a fake.

The video looked suspicious from the beginning. Didn't take me more than a few seconds to figure that it was fake. This Hotz guy is an idiot. The last thing we need if for Ford nation to have "evidence" that the video was fake.

No. Some comedian made the fake for his show. Equivalent of what Jimmy Fallon did on his show.
And it was an obvious fake too.
It's a joke. A faked fake. Get off your high horse
Real thing will soon be released.

As it appears on FB it doesn't start or end frozen, it's only 2-3 seconds of fluid video, hence how I was fooled at first.

Hardly. It was a pathetic attempt at a fake. Should't take anyone more than a few seconds to see that. It also dosen't match the Gawker description.

When the story *starts* with a mayor of a major city potentially smoking street drugs, there's not a heck of a long way to go to reach 'circus' I guess.

Personally I will let those who have seen the video to confirm any released videos before buying into the argument that any little snippet is real.

This event, or more like it need to get big. Real big. Like Nathan Phillips Square on New Years Even big. There's certainly enough opposition to Ford at this point. It needs to start with a solid core of people having a peaceful sit in the square in front of Ford's office then have people join in organized events with protests, maybe get some local artists to support it and perform outside the office, and eventually it'll gain a life of its own. Ford needs to go down Tahir Square style.
