Would that be a reverse Groucho, Chico, or Harpo Marxis
t?

For 80s Doug Ford, it would be Richard!

Not in my copy!

Not in my copy!

I was under the impression JimmiT said there would be something today. Jimmi?

Well done.

Might've been held back for some other story. I'll check!

I don't think John Tory is an Old Boy, though his grandfather was.

OT, but so what if he went to UCC? It's a great school and I'm tired of people who haven't set foot inside it slagging it because "OMG rich people = bad".

John Tory graduated from UTS, not UCC.

Held off until probably the weekend. Not time sensitive yet.

Gee, re-enforcing class warfare, I guess Dougie IS the true candidate of the PEOPLE by supporting classes that are worthy.

I think Doug would be quite happy to avoid a debate on priority neighbourhoods. The Fordian track record on community programs, anti-gang programs, child care, and all other supports is abysmal.

True, but for the fact that other candidates never bother to bring that to anybody's attention.

Let's hope that OC or JT hit DoFo with that tonight (assuming he shows up). So far that hasn't happened and they're both letting Ari do the heavy lifting. That's what I'm really ticked about, no one but Ari is calling BS on the Ford's bag of lies.

Reminds me of family guy. "A bag of lies, a bag of lies, everything's better with a bag of lies!"

ETA and of course it works nicely even when you sing the original. DoFo Apropos.

UTS is A LOT harder to get into than UCC - you just don't show up there with a cheque in hand - you have to be smart too. This is probably what Dofus meant by JT being an elite - he has an IQ over 100 (though I would suspect you probably need to be over 130 to be able to pass the UTS entry exams).
