He'll win again. Just heard a caller on 640 say that he's never shown up drunk to city hall during a council meeting so he's doing a great job. "Hey as long as it doesn't affect his work, it's all good". See what the city is up against?

So did the Sun do any decent reporting that it claims to be good at?

Wha-
How is it still possible that this guy hasn't resigned?

Can someone explain what this means for us not in the know?
Potentially how much crazier can this get from this?
Because he exclusively makes bad decisions.
This could be quite something.
I can also imagine Chief Blair calling him up right now and saying "Do you still want me to resign?"
Well we might find out what the hell Ford was doing when he was sneaking around gas stations passing manila envelopes to Lisi.
Good luck with that. Here's what he said a day or so ago:
"I'll be running this ship, even if it's by myself"
We might get records of the wiretaps police performed on Lisi and presumably Ford like we got that info dump last week.
Although this one will likely be heavily redacted
Also he just said to the Sun that he still isn't going to resign or take a leave

Wasn't there a murder linked to all of this? Or am I thinking of something else.
There is. One of the dudes in that photo he's posing with was shot in the head, I believe.

Crackgate don't stop until the Crackgatekeeper says it does.
I prefer my leaders and decisionmakers to experience drunken stupors whenever possible. Engaging in other mind-altering activities, such as crack cocaine smoking, in the course of one of said drunken stupors is a bonus. Please make as many important decisions as possible while high or drunk or both.
Rob Ford sets a great example for Toronto kids: there are apparently no consequences for doing hard drugs and lying about it. Awesome. Does he have any kids of his own?
Do even the Ford faithful truly believe that that was the one and only time he has done crack? What about all the clandestine meetings/payments/deliveries with Lisi? What about Sarah Thomson's comments that he sexually assaulted her and acted high at some event earlier in the year before the crack scandal broke. If by some disaster he ends up running for mayor again next year, any other candidate that gives him a pass on this is not getting my vote.

Time to break out those 80s crackhead jokes. Meth jokes just aren't as funny.

Can this guy not be sacked or something?
I mean, most jobs you'd be sacked for this.

There's no provisions to fire him at the municipal level unless he misses like 8 months of council meetings (which he might if he's in jail lol)
The province might be able to fire him if he gets charged, not sure on that one.
This could be amazing.
There's no way to impeach a mayor. Doesn't exist in the law here. If he was part of a political party then the constituents could oust him, but he's elected directly by the public.
Unfortunately even if he's convicted and goes to jail, it won't be any time soon.
Though hey, maybe he's missed 8 months worth of meetings already!

Charged for what though?
Well given his admission today he must have done something far worse than just smoke crack which is afaik, already a crime

He's betrayed the public trust from the moment he stepped into office.
Plus it will not end here
He lied, engaged in illegal activities, as a public servant.
Help sure? But allowing him to continue being the cities mayor is stupid.

But he could be arrested, right? At least theoretically?
