why can't we have CEOs going into politics, people who have shown they can run a large company, think on their feet, be a good social citizen (that wipes out 90% of CEOs), etc. I would hope it's not just about money (how many years at $10M in total compensation does a CEO of a pubco need?).
on that note, mayor moonbeam was a CEO of juicy hippy planet, and i think he's a royal douche (putting forward his own interest at the expense of the majority, really pushing this green thing that is nothing more than a name, and then ironically going on trips to china to drum up trade - i'm sorry, but a) isn't that a provincial/federal issue, and b) make your city a 'green' city, do trade with the biggest polluters around (not judging china, they're going through an economic revolution, just stating a fact))
this whole rob ford thing is just ridiculous, i'm surprised there isn't some ethics guidance he has to sign when he takes public office (remember, this is public office, so if 95% or however many ppl in TO government want him to take a leave, shouldn't that say to him that the 'people' have spoken?) - i'm sure i signed something when i joined my company, and showing up and acting like he has done would get me fired in a heartbeat.
total BS, a waste of news space, he needs to quite his job, go and get help, and then use his 'position' to help others with substance abuse issues. so sick of moonbeam, corrupt montreal politicians, rob ford - these people are all inept.

while i appreciate that he is actually an ok mayor, that's not really the point. the irony is, moonbeam does shit, yet he's the sparkle in the eyes of all the koolaid drinking douche bags in vancouver.
this level of rob ford's retarded behaviour wouldn't stand in the corporate world, why should we, the people who vote in and pay for these muppets, put up with a lower bar than shareholders?
I would never do that. I'm happily married. I've got more than enough to eat at home.

"Oh and the last thing was, um, Olivia Gondek. It says that I wanted to eat her p---y. Olivia Gondek, I've never said that in my life to her. I would never do that," he said, in comments that were broadcast live on television. "I'm happily married — I've got more than enough to eat at home."
I am simply beyond words. All I can think of is that I am so thankful I am not his media / public relations officer...
At this point, I almost don't want him to resign now. The entertainment value that he is providing is far outweighing all the negatives that he has caused Toronto...
^This is a big part of it: people are tired of stuffy, backstabbing, back-pedalling, pandering, smarmy-faced politicians. I guarantee you every single voter anywhere in the country at some point has wanted to bitchslap an elected official for bending over to some special interest group or other such namby-pamby shit... this guy just has no filter and says things that we've all thought from time to time. The guy is the dictionary picture of a hot mess, but at least you know where he stands (granted, it's in the gutters encircling the bowels of hell, but still...)

man fucking one of the councilors said he was "disgusted" by the comments
grow the fuck up, people have sex...can't believe this is even an issue
political correctness is the cancer killing canadian society
-sounds like Ford has Charlie Sheen's support based on this tweet:
Charlie Sheen @CharlieSheen
14th November 2013 from Twittelator Pro
dear Mayor Rob Ford,
the only truth or correct reporting in today's
repulsive story regarding
my alleged comments about you,
is the accurate spelling of your great city.
your personal life is and never would be,
any of my business.
I'm sorry for any grief this may have caused.
if I can be of any assistance
in any capacity in this
media cesspool,
please accept the noble offer of my steady
hand and compassionate heart.
respectfully,
charlie sheen.
LOL at Rob's latest comments. i like him even more now
lets paint him a portrait, and erect him a fucking statue

LOOOL what's so bad about what Ford said? So he's blunt...whatever. It was a great quote. Only prudes would be offended.
And anyone with children. You really want this guy hanging around children? The guy has said he has giving money to drug dealers for crack and he hangs out with them. remember this is the same guy who is in charge of the police department. Would anyone here think it would be cool if your mayor hung out with the Bacon brothers or the Hells angles?
For all those people who don't like Mayor Gregor Robertson what have you done about it? How many of you even voted in the last election?
