Rob Ford's Toronto

[newearthling]

Rob still not in. Too busy not reading report.

Maybe Renata has moved out for real.

Frank D'A and Bill Watters talking about Fraud Nayshun

Not sure how you managed that - I had to close the tab after Frank cooking, Frank acting, then Frank singing. Though I'll try again later, for now I'm unsure whether my dark forebodings should gravitate more to relief that D'A's distancing from Ford, or trepidation that he sees opportunity in Kouvalis/Tory.

I am afraid there is a rather obvious rot in every level of our governance. Peace and order, maybe...good governance? Good riddance.

I frequently remind myself that, while TPS may not be able to to arrest Ford despite ample real-time surveillance of impaired driving and drug hand-offs, they certainly excel in the violent suppression of civil dissent.

While I'm indulging in wild and unhealthy imaginings, is it possible that a UT member is trolling the comments at the Sun?

Ford finally showed up but went through the back door to avoid media.

News release: "Mayor Ford presents awards for community safety projects."

Daniel Dale ‏@ddale8 3m
Projects "help victims of crime, reduce violence within high-risk communities," etc. Ford will be joined by a Toronto Police inspector...

Daniel Dale ‏@ddale8 3m
...while he remains under criminal investigation by the Toronto Police.

You can't not love Dale.

I wanted to high five him through my phone. He says so much in so few words.

Given how prolific Bumbaclot is, the Sun's mods must enjoy the fun.

Yup, and we're very proud of them

So that would be when the Mayors Escalade is parked out front of the Now Magazine office

oldie Muskokie... well mid 60's small lake Viceroy cottage Muskoka... (Port Sydney(?)) half way to LofB, middle of nowhere, middle of Muskoka wise.

Fawn Lake from above.

What kind of Viceroy? A Rollback?

Also: a greengrocer's apostrophe on their cottage sign... well, one of the signs. There are many signs. What a lovely tie-in to the thread!

The greengrocer's apostrophe is all over cottage country. Super distracting when I'm driving through there.

Re: Deco being used to launder money, esp. from cocaine trafficking.
We talked about that a lot last summer, no?
I remember Evvabeing (where did they go?) did a lot of sleuthing and came up with some articles that seemed to back up that assertion.
