I've spoken to people from Toronto and yes, although his conduct as a Mayor could be considered an embarrassment, people generally like him for his actual work as a Mayor. I didn't read too many articles into it but since entering office, he's been saving the city of Toronto a ton of money from your typical bureaucracy bs. With that being said, it is fairly likely he will be re-elected as mayor

I wouldn't mind having him as mayor of Vancouver... on my commute home I always look at those stupid bike lanes and remind myself that despite Mr. Ford's oddities, there are definitely worse leaders

excerpt of the conversation... :buttrock:

Quote:

MALE PATRON: How do you fuck your wife?

FORD: I’d fuck her wife. I’d fuck—what the fuck? … Now, I wont go that far … that’s when we start talking my language.

FEMALE VOICE: Oh Nick, stop, I don’t like where this conversation is …

FORD: We’re talking politics.

MALE PATRON: When was the last time you smoked a joint?

FORD: It doesn’t matter. These guys want me fucking covered. But I said ‘nobody is going to cover me.’ I’ve got everything under control.

FEMALE VOICE: Rob!

FORD: Is that your, is that your wife?

HIGH PITCHED VOICE: Yeah.

FORD: Get her a shot right now or I’ll fucking break her—

MALE VOICE: It’s not a competition

FEMALE VOICE: Stop.

FORD: I don’t mind talking politics. Fuck bro, I fucking pound this every day.

FUCK CANCER

Beyond sad but at least he lived life and was truly a mayor for the people and even tho he liked to get loser pissed and smoke crack he still did a great job.

RIP

Verdasco 03-22-2016 08:42 AM

as much as i hate that guy, he spoke for the people and in the right mind

he understood the lower/middle class people and tried what he could

RIP

Berzerker 03-22-2016 08:44 AM

RIP you crazy sonofabitch!

Berz out.

Traum 03-22-2016 10:21 AM

While I think he is a crazy idiot, it is really surprising to see how incredibly fast cancer overwhelmed him.

RIP Mayor Ford.

The part people forgot about with all the recent scandal. This is why people voted him in.

the think i love about him is the fact that he didnt look like someone u can trust, but yet he was for the ppl

hes totally unfit to be in office but yet he does a job that's far better then any of the politicians u see today

Galactic_Phantom 03-24-2016 09:52 AM

^Much rather have Ford as a mayor than Moonbeam

As a facebook friend put it:

Quote:

Publicly called a reporter a pedophile. Was threatened with a lawsuit, so he reluctantly apologized and admitted he misled details in the account.
"He was a decent man."

Derided public staff constantly on misuse of public funds while using his own staff to assist with personal activities.
"He was a decent man."

Bullied, lied and created an unsafe work environment for people doing their job and who were correct in their investigations the whole time.
"He was a decent man."

Criticized by the ethics commissioner multiple times, yet refused to acknowledge blame, accept punishment or act cordially - because rules are for other people.
...called Jews K****!
...disrespected the gay community
...curated shameful lies in order to win angry public support

So "decent a man" he should be compared to the likes of Abraham Lincoln and remembered as a public hero.
