This is a classic case of spin gone wrong. Sometimes you can't win for trying lol. Firstly, you have to address the fact that SC was reported to have kicked a protestor. This is not a positive so you either have to plead guilty with an explanation but it seems there is no explanation so it's...

And he was in court supposedly on the fraud charges in 2011 for fraud that occurred in 2004? I know the wheels of justice turn slowly but come on ... 7 years? Makes me wonder when the fraud actually occurred or if there were multiple occurrences.

^^Further evidence the 'Do Not Call' list doesn't work. Theoretically, if you are on this list you shouldn't be getting unsolicited marketing calls and I would suggest that Robbie's call is just that - a call marketing himself. And the gall really ... You have to listen to then but can't...

Has anyone else been the lucky recipient of a Robbie Robocall recently? Or am I the only one so blessed? Robbie told me that he is the only one who has built subways although last I checked, they're not quite built lol. He goes on to say Tory and Chow would increase gridlock and tear up our...

Unless there was a public record of any work sanction, such as an arbitration that went against Joe, no employer would be stupid enough, especially the school board, to divulge confidential employment records. It's this pesky thing called "privacy" afforded to us by both federal and provincial...

I don't recall when McRobb was fired. I was only responding to someone else's speculation that her term would more likely have been failed rehab than because of Ford. If she was fired before then it would have been related to god knows what.

That's not generally how it's done. It opens up all sorts of nasty legal quagmires, including wrongful dismissal, bad faith discharge and potential grounds for Human Rights. Banks in particular tend to be quite cautious where HR matters are concerned. As I said, you can fire anyone you want...

You are correct that it is more likely her termination was the result of failure to successfully complete rehab, if in fact her termination occurred after her stint there. As a long time sr HR practitioner and a former bank employee, I would be surprised if she were fired because of Ford rather...

LeDrew is a pretty low bar though wouldn't you say? Almost as low as wormy.

Looked fairly appropriate to me lol. Guess I'm just that gullible :)

Is this a joke?

While I don't wish an early demise on anyone, I'm just gonna put this out on the table: If he really was in rehab and went through detox and has been sober for a few weeks, his next relapse could be his last. It takes time to build up tolerance to substances and that tolerance is reduced when...

Exactly. If he gets disqualified from office for something like .... workplace violence then he won't get his 12 months pay when he isn't re-elected. I think we've paid him far too much already. That we would be on the hook for another year's pay in November is disgusting given everything he's done.

I hope Pam McConnell doesn't see it that way. Workplace Violence is entrenched in Bill 168 and city hall is still a workplace. If it weren't, councillors would not get severance when they left CH if they aren't re-elected. Right now, we have a better chance of consequences under 168 than the TPS

While I'm not looking forward to RoFo return, and not holding my breath on TPS investigation, the fact there is a "workplace violence investigation" unfolding gives me hope. I have seen it many times: person in danger of losing their job goes out on disability in attempt to cloak themselves...

I think the whole Ford saga demonstrates that there are no "checks & balances" on politicians. Short of doing something illegal that puts them in jail, they can do whatever without repercussion. Unless they have a moral compass and do the honourable thing to resign, we are stuck with them. Funny...

Soknacki is not a sitting councillor therefore would not have been scored as he doesn't vote in council.

Oh I definitely get that; it couldn't be more transparent. It really is very insulting of them to assume "folks" are that stoopid. Seriously. Except Ford Nation is that stoopid. Fortunately, he's going to need more than what's left of Ford Nation to win.

90 minutes for 40+ councillors? WTF? How much of a conversation can you have in 2 minutes. Even if only 10 councillors accept that's still only 9 minutes per. What an imbecile! Ford math at its best.

Doug is merely using a messaging strategy that has proven effective and it goes something like this: Tell them what you're gonna tell them Tell them what you told them you were gonna tell them Finally, tell them what you told them! Consistent messaging, no evidence needed and repetition...
