So Hizzoner’s been seen everywhere this week. (“I bin everywhere man, I bin everywhere …â€) He sure isn’t just having a few pops in the basement.

OTOH, has anybody actually seen him at Greenestone in the last few days? Not even for a selfie over the fence?

ETA: Any McRob spotters out there? Has she been seen with him recently? Any updates from Mactier? Curious noggins wanna know...

It's at the Timmie's/Mac's on Wellington in Bracebridge same as yesterdays shots, from my street view you can see the beige block / grey block transition between the two stores. And RoFo's wearing the same clothes...

This is the response to my email that I received from the World Mayor rep

Dear Angela

Thank you for your email.

Last year, we reported in great detail and at great length about the shenanigans of Toronto’s mayor Rob Ford and, at this side of the pond, we are indeed astonished that he is still mayor, albeit with much reduced powers and now in rehab.

We are even more astonished that the mayor is still supported by a great many Torontonians (Ford Nation).

His inclusion in this year’s longlist – not shortlist – reflects his popularity. But be assured that when, this week, we draw up the shortlist of 25 nominees, Rob Ford’s record in office will come under intense scrutiny.

Best wishes

This drives me absolutely crazy, he is NOT supported by a "Great many" but more of a freaked out few. He was NEVER supported by a "great many". Even during his honeymoon first year period he still only had around 60% approval rating (which is about average) and was below 50% after his first budged of his first year in 2011.

In 2011 they did a poll of the 15 largest cities in the nation He was second last just ahead of the Montreal mayor who resigned from office due to corruption. Ford was NOT a popular mayor in 2011 and has been stuck in the mid 40s since and now is down to the high 20s

In contrast Nenshi recently had a drop in approval rating from 80% to 73% approval! (when your rating drop and you are still in the 70s THAT's support of MANY people) Same article has Edmonton mayor at 70%. Ford never had those numbers even in his first year

I talked with my friend in Mactier who lives within a stone's throw Of McRobb's sister and he said he hasn't seen her, and she usually is over at her sisters place frequently.

He said "If she's got her hooks in him he'll be back drinking in no time.

A couple weeks back I was at a local place I shoot pool in a pool league. There is a regular there everyday, he's an older loudmouth and ardent Rob Ford supporter. He buys the Sun every day. I show up usually about 15-20 minutes early, glance at the Sun and grab a Diet Coke.

On this day someone had "photoshopped" the dudes paper and he was in a rage that "someone defaced my paper!"

I got a huge laugh from the creativeness of whoever did it.

What happened to the dock photo that was circulating? Do you think it was being shopped around and the Ford's got wind and bought it? Could it have shown him at his cottage?

A picture of him at his cottage would be pretty damning. I would hope at least a few media outlets would be doing occasional checkins for signs of life there. I'd say it's in the public interest.
