I can't believe Ford is still going after the 5 cent bag fee again. Despite the executive committee voting 10-3 to keep the fee on Feb. 13, 2012 he's going to try again? Even if it goes to a vote on council, there's no way council will get rid of it. I would suspect even some of Ford's allies...

I saw somebody write the following sentence on Facebook, which can summarize anyone who defines themselves as a Ford supporter. "There seem to be a lot of angry people out there who are living out their revenge fantasies vicariously via certain accommodating public figures through whom...

Daniel Dale was at Ford's weigh in this morning and as expected, he did not take any questions from the media. He was 40+ minutes late for the weigh in and last week he was 50+ minutes late last week. Maybe he is sleeping in? The question is... was the AM/PM, snooze or a separate knob for the...

With the marathon this weekend and the Ride for Heart happening in just under a month, I'm surprised we're not hearing about these events closing down roads. Wasn't that a big issue for Ford a year or two ago? I wonder if he has drop the subject in lieu of his current approval ratings and/or his...

Another week, another cancelled weigh-in... the day after missing his radio show... the week after announcing he'll skip the Pride Parade... a few days after publicly snubbing PETA and being seen at KFC a few hours later. I think it's safe to say, this guy cannot follow through with anything.

I haven't read any of this thread but I wanted to add my two cents as someone who lived in a place where a casino was built. Despite my user name, I actually grew up in Point Edward, Ontario next door to Sarnia. When I was in high school in the late 90's, a charity casino was built in Point...

Didn't the 2009 garbage strike occur during Pride? Miller always attended the Pride parade... what was the reaction he received from the crowd? I believe it was the public's perception that he was to blame for it. Miller always attended the Labour Day parade too... he even showed up in 2009...

First weigh-in this morning in a while he's up a pound to 312. I wonder if the lettuce-clad PETA ladies will give this rare weigh-in any extra press? If he had lost weight, it would've been the perfect storm for a Sun News reporter... bikini's and a positive RoFo headline.

I see someone beat me to the story by a few minutes... regardless... www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/story/2012/04/10/toronto-ford-weight.html At what point will there be more cancellations than actual weigh ins? Funny that he can find 2 hours a week to do a radio show but can't find 5...

Did anybody else read this article on the Star today? What does Rob Ford want to do until 2014? http://www.thestar.com/news/cityhallpolitics/article/1156197--what-does-rob-ford-want-to-do-until-2014?bn=1 He brought up scrapping bag tax in most of his year end "interviews" that came out...

There's video of the weigh in here: http://www.citytv.com/toronto/citynews/topic/cut_the_waist_challenge/article/197504--mayor-ford-gains-a-few-to-weigh-311-pounds He certainly doesn't look happy for the very, very brief moment he steps on the scale. How long is this supposed to go on for? He...

Did anyone else catch this tweet from Ford's official Twitter account this morning? What's that, two weigh ins canceled this month? This guy can barely control his own PR stunt.

Here is an article with some quotes from the Twinmayor(s) regarding what you were talking about. http://www.thestar.com/business/article/1151706--mayor-rob-ford-seeks-slate-in-next-election#article Some gems from the article...

Looks like the scale is back. http://www.citytv.com/toronto/citynews/topic/cut_the_waist_challenge/article/194346--mayor-ford-drops-2-pounds-as-weight-loss-challenge-continues Though the highlight of the weigh in this morning was this... That's some really solid advice.:rolleyes:

In regards to the expert transit panel recommending LRT over subways yesterday... I'm starting to think it doesn't matter that Ford won't speak to The Star. He just repeats the same lines over and over again. All those year end interviews he did just before Christmas sounded like this too.
