I don't understand why this is dominating Canuck news. What does it matter to anyone from outside the GTA?
A politician who is a national embarrassment makes news.
Look at Anthony Weiner.
I dunno. I think Harper's got to be pleased as punch that this sideshow is distracting the media from Duffy, Wallin, and Brazeau though.

You need to read the story to get the quote.
Classic Rob Ford! Whatta douchebag.
Does this woman look like a proud wife, or an abused woman? My heart goes out to her.

What a train wreck...... :P
On a lighter note, it seems the mayor got himself a little bit too much milk. Crazy tyke!

There are so many comments to be made! Is it just me, or is the fact that he apparently can't be trusted with a real glass perhaps the biggest indictment of the mayor's abilities? And that look of determination...a steely resolve to best his beverage, or just an earnest attempt to avoid crapping his pants?
And the captions!!!
"Wait a minute...Doug promised me a glass of fat, and this is moo juice! IT TASTES OF NOTHING BUT LIES!"
given the relative lack of quality entertainment on TV coming out of Canada, you guys can't possibly want to dump this guy. You should be making reality TV series out of him
I think SDR said it best, it deflects the media away from current scandals in the federal government.
Not sure who I'd trust more though. Until this whole fiasco, most voters appeared happy with Ford's work in office from what I understand. Obviously he has problems that affect the publics confidence in him now. If all is indeed true, he truely needs to step down and get professional help, and end the circus.
Now, our current provicial premier (i.e. state governor in US) in Quebec (Pauline Marois), is a real nut case.

Hobbitown Mayor Ford knew he was in heaven when, during his first trip outside the Shire, he discovered that at the Prancing Pony they served cocaine in pints.
this guy makes Boris Johnson look like a schoolboy.

She sure doesn't look proud.
I've been told that police have, in the past, made trips to the Ford home on domestic disturbance calls.

Well, that picture does nothing to refute the accusation.
I was OK ridiculing the guy for being so dumb as to do drugs and run for office, but upon hearing the suggestion of domestic violence my empathy for him has dropped to negative territory. If true, I hope she gets some help and fast. Ford's trajectory is not likely to produce good things for anyone within arm's length of him.

For those willing to spend 40 minutes laughing at incompetence and wondering at humanity at large, you can find the one and only episode of Ford Nation up on Youtube. It was a show Rob and Doug did for SunTV. It's indescribably, hilariously bad.
