      No, that’s his brother. This is the hash dealer.

      Well, it was crack, but yes. He went from being a mayor to a premier. And people are shocked that the corrupt asshole is acting all corrput.

      Edit: It was his brother, as the commentor below points out. But Dougie was known to be shitty before he was premier.

        No, that was his brother. Rob Ford was mayor of Toronto and died a few years back.

        Doug Ford is his brother who used Rob’s popularity and name to propel himself to premiership.

                  I don’t understand why elections don’t have quorums. My condo can’t do something obvious (fix AC chiller) without having enough owners agree, yet we can be governed by a party that gets a majority after most voters actually sat out with the attitude, “they all suck.”

                  If a quorum isn’t met in an election, all candidates for that riding should be barred from running again, and a new election should be called.

                    I love that we have a perfect analogy to help drive home the point the next time a Party whines it would make it to hard to win or whatever the fuck is holding us up yet

        Rob Ford was mayor of Toronto, and he was filmed on video smoking crack.

        He was an extremely conservative mayor who axed a lot of social programs and privatized things like garbage collection.

          And this is Doug, Rob’s (who passed away) brother. Doug likely got Rob into drugs in the first place, as he’s a known former dealer.

              Have you not seen his default shit-eating grin expression that he has all the time? The man is scum and regrets nothing that doesn’t actively lose him money.

                  The most hilarious (and sad) thing about our province is that it’s run by a sticker salesman who both doesn’t want to sell profitable stickers (license plate renewals), and who sold defective stickers (blue license plate stickers).

              I will say the casting was amazing for Adam West and I also deeply appreciate the performance and casting of his spiritual successor, Sam Elliott as Mayor West II

          They seriously privatized that? Fuck. Is it a disaster or did it actually “work out”, what’s the verdict?

            Just wait until you hear about what his brother wants to do. Privatize healthcare. And conservatives are jumping for joy about it.

            Kinda weird that conservatives bitch non stop about a few bucks in taxes, but think paying $15,000 out of pocket for an x-ray is the way.

              Sadly, I don’t see public healthcare surviving into the 2030s in this country. Too many people subscribe to the IDU-funded propaganda that two-tier is a “good thing”, and that’s the leading edge of a slippery slope to a sheer cliff… The Provinces (mostly run by Cons) are bleeding the system. PP will deliver the death blow unless he’s stopped from getting into power.
