Mike Tyson is not what I would consider a good endorsement. One idiot endorsing another!

[Glacier]

This is golden.

In a rambling exchange with reporters after meeting Ford at city hall, the former world heavyweight champion who has been convicted of rape, assault and drug possession, said the mayor is always under the spotlight.

"He has a troubled past because he has 24-hour surveillance of the press... We've no idea what you do behind closed doors."

Tyson dubbed Ford the "best mayor in Toronto's history" and then asked if people would instead prefer someone "who's clean cut but behind the door you never know what he's doing."

You can't just make this stuff up.

[Smurf]

He looks like Ford's kind of people to me. They would probably go well together. Hopefully Ford has cleaned up his act.

Doctors say biopsy results won't be available until next week but his brother said ...

Doug Ford promises a statement after the 2 p.m. election list deadline. He told the Sun the mayor could be facing surgery, chemo and several weeks in hospital.

Well we do know the mental issues are.


I don't wish the medical problems on anyone but won't miss him at all.

Sounds like he is possibly in the real fight of his life.... hopefully he will be ok

You have to just love the Leftwing media CBC's constant talking points about Rob Ford . Somewhere in every report they bring up his drug issues, which is fair but biased. Justin Trudeau admits to smoking Pot and wants to legalize it , but nothing is said about it , and with Justin's latest ramblings about "Rethinking Time and Space" you really have to wonder just how many joints is this *bleep* still doing on a daily basis. Admits to smoking Pot while sitting as a federal MP , WOW.

The CBC says NOTHING? WOW.

[dudlee]

They "Bleeped" a non swear word , that's funny .

[ferri]

now i'm dying to know what the word was. pm me. lol

they are saying now that Doug Ford is going to run for mayor and Rob is running for council. and his nephew that was in the council race has dropped out. (this all makes me miss the Toronto Zoo oddly enough...)

[Glacier]

I joined a weather forum, and tried to discuss the weather in Ashcroft, but it was bleeped out because it's apparently a swearword.

Doug Ford - running for Mayor
Michael Ford - running for Toronto District School Board Trustee
Rob Ford - running for Councillor in Ward 2

All registration papers were filed before the 2pm deadline today.

I hope no one mistakes this *bleep* family for the Canadian version of the Kennedy family. More like the Capone family in my opinion.

[oneh2obabe]

Only one who thinks they are "royalty" on par with the Kennedy clan is Mama Ford.
