Years before Rob Ford, in the US we had Chris Farley who was a Saturday Night Live actor that looked and acted a lot like Rob and was actually a drug addict (his drug addiction actually killed him). Look Chris Farley SNL up on KZread, you will see the resemblance. May both Chris and Rob RIP.
2 years later and he was still a better leader than his brother
amazing that Rob Ford has saved this city a billion bucks. first crack head ever that could actually save money

Ya. And it turned out to be short term gain for long term pain. Toronto is poor now; the city's infrastructure is crumbling, people sleep in the street, the subway system is failing. The city can't afFORD to fix any of it thanks to the legacy of Rob Ford.

Even though Rob Ford got caught with crack, at least he was man enough to take full responsibility and apologized to his supporters of his wrongdoing, unlike Marion Barry, who claimed that he was “set up” because he didn’t have to balls to fess up in what he did.
He was so high he can't remember whom he was threatenting. He was hallucinating.
I'd vote for that guy.
Chris Farley could've had a field day with this. Just think, a new skit every week on SNL!

No they were blue collar rich. Brothers sold weed when young. The ford files run deep
I gotta give him respect for leaning into the scandal.
We love you from Windsor, ON

If Toronto is anything like D.C. he will get re-elected for sure.

The mayor of the government being the Mayor Ford has everyone a personal life personal choice mistakes as an adult yet we have children and we make mistakes sometimes it's whatever reason things become overwhelmed people become as some might say addicts to cigarettes nicotine addicts to a soda addicts to caffeine addicts to smoking hemp to the point of drinking alcohol liquor I am and I made my mistakes but again everything that I might have consumed or some people say a certain word they become contaminated and affect the human person making them a little bit more uncontrolled but not again not while I'm working only on my spare time when I feel have you said that as they normally would say at the end of the day we all have our leisure time being as an adult I'm not going to blame no one for saying I can handle it but it was not
Ríp
The reason for it was an upset at the individuals that were present on such and such place might be my residence my place of comfort my place on the constitutional protected have peace of mind you can't be on the property stepping on the grass stepping on the what he was clearly stepping on the to protect me from that kind of activity give me a right to say get off and you should know not to be on the property so what is the problem was he not being accused of being on crack was he on heroin we don't know what the newscast was on but he was very disrespectful and that is a concern you can't blame the crack the mayor goes four goals you can't blame crack you got to say what is wrong with that picture trespassing on a crime to trespass a step and destroyed my property my sprinklers that's what's the problem that particular day no conscience for my wife for my things effects and such and such
What we were talking about crack okay crack me another soda cocaine are we talking about Coke okay yeah they got me to drinking Coke all right Coke we got Pepsi Coke we got Coke regular Coke with Coke you want I want Coke with no 25 no sugar give me a diet Coke and put a lot of
Mayor do you allow the police to test p not endorse any type of officer consuming or using or testing or what under the influence with a weapon Ford has clearly stated he does not even know the name of whatever it is they say it is something called what something that was brought here eventually by someone someone that gave it to someone that I got for whatever reason tried it and I like it can I have the instinct of an animal like everyone of you individuals are animals just like me we're no different we live and die but we do know how to control ourselves when we have to be so make that clear for clearly says on the record unless you can see but don't don't trespass on my property don't harass me don't put a microphone in my face cuz that would annoy
I wonder, is he a bad mayor? has crime increased? have taxes been up? has the budget been kept under control? have city services quality decreased? have schools quality decreased? this guy is embarrassing but those are the questions that really matter
