@evva... That bit about the money sure is something, eh?

From Filion's book
"Dominating Rob Ford’s office, on the wall behind the mayor’s desk, was a blow-up of his father posing with Mike Harris. Covering the screen on the computer Rob never turned on was another photo of his father.
There were other reminders of his dad throughout the office but, oddly, no photos of him with Rob. Nothing from childhood, not a campaign shot, nor anything from the years just before his father died, in 2006.
No warm memories. No stories of happy times together."

Interesting thing about this photo is how it confirms an earlier observation of mine: that once upon a time, Randy (bottom right) was the "handsomeist" Ford of the bunch...

I have to wonder for how many people in the old city of Etobicoke this sight was the last thing they ever saw.

yes... especially the chris part (well that and the wanting to charge a vacation on a staffer's personal credit card) who only worked for him for 6 months. he resigned in june 2013... so the accident and subsequent extortion attempt could very well have happened while the fords were trying to buy the crack video.

The biggest strike for Harper should be that Ford bought his drugs from a gang that smuggled handguns across the border. But that seems to be a step too much for sound bites.

This is from the Star article, and I thought this part was interesting:
"Provided with the relevant excerpts on Saturday, Toronto police spokesman Mark Pugash said he’d heard similar stories circulating before but had never been presented with any evidence that they were actually true.
“These comments have circulated for a number of years and no one has ever, as far as I’m aware, put names, dates, places or anything to them so it strikes me at this point that it’s second- or third-hand gossip,” he said. “And as far as his second point about they knew he was driving drunk and weren’t doing anything about it, that’s simply not true . . .
“For him to say nothing was done, I can’t go into the specifics, but that’s just not true and I’m really at a loss to understand how Mr. Towhey could even come to that conclusion.”
