Sounds like Worms is coaching Doug Ford for Kelly Leitch's Canadian Values Test.

Goose poop! I'd almost forgotten the goose poop. So many fond memories. Looks like, with such a comprehensive glance back, the Star's having a little fun with Fords.

BLM TO does not come out of nowhere, and WE white pi po do not have any right to tell them what they can say or how they can say it publicly or in their private communications with each other. If you don't want a discussion about real issues maybe a new thread - perhaps I Hate the War on White...

Re: FF Motley Crew - what do you figure the median age of that Eh? List is? As for "the kids" doing well, Rob just used them as human shields between himself and the media; Doug uses them as foot soldiers. It gives me the creeps. I wonder about the kids of the Fest attendees, presumably (young)...

Mikey's voice - could just be nerves. Maybe they should have let him hide behind "Brownie" (that is the dog's name, right?)

I'm hoping he goes heavy on touting how the Orange Caligula Trump learned everything he knows about politics from the FoBros.

Doug's book sounds like the result of him giving himself one of his famous top-to-bottom enemas. I'd suggest he do the book drop at Tim Horton outlets nationally: each book purchase gets you a *free* Rob Ford Memorial bobblehead (They must still have a wrarehouse full of them). Then at least...

I wonder if Doug let Patrick Brown read any of the drafts yet or if Ray Cho had any insights to offer in the writing. I think Doug should have gotten eminent historian and erudite former Canadian Connie Black to ghost write.

who wouldn't want to read Doug's book as ghost written by Rob Ford and Saint Mother Thereda in Heaven?

AND only 28.14% of the eligible voters even bothered to show up at the polls. A real hotbed of PC support in Scarburbia. Cho's going to have to promise them a subway or something before 2018. Cho didn't even get one vote per Sex Ed promise letter (13,000) sent out. Soooo, the good news is he's...

What Blue Wave? One Scarborough riding is at best a ripple. And some of the less crazy/craven PCs are not happy with Brown and the Sex Ed stunt. There's also a process at OLB to award 3 casinos in the GTA. Dougie would probably be checking out 'opportunities' using his new-found influence with...

CBC's reporting Cho has a 900 vote lead. I'm waiting for Doogie to announce he'll seek the nomination for the by-election for seat vacated by Hudak on the basis of his win in Scarborough.

^ or Cho-kes their boss, the Leader of the Official Opposition

Tory campaigned on being Toronto's Transit Mayor with his Scarborough commitment and his Smart Track on a napkin plan. We've had 2 years of furor over transit and his other "commitments" re: taxes, anti-poverty and housing initiatives, and policing. As the 2017 budget exercise launched I've...

I think Brown has imposed a leash law on Dougie's mouth, and he has been quite quiet. Maybe he, as Cho's campaign manager, was part of Brown's campaign "team". Maybe Dougie leaked the letter? Brown made his weird sort-of retraction. I haven't seen or heard an apology, just denials and claims...

On Metro Morning he blamed his "team"/staff for the letter HE signed, and which was "leaked" A letter to constituents leaked? He said it was sent to 2,000 people in the constituency - religious leaders one might assume. But no, he said it wasn't about homo sex. He and an 'official delegation'...

So, is Cho running on Patrick Brown's "Scrap the Sex Ed program" initiative? What we need is more old men deciding what kids need to know about sex. Or was that another shot to distance Family Values Doug from the CPO?

I thought I was on the Rob Ford thread there for a minute.

There's a lot of stuff going on in the US that we miss when we look at one protest/riot or shooting/incident. There's the demographic, economic and history of specific states/towns/regions with respect to race relations. And then, right now, there's the election and the Trump Phenomena. More...

The problem generally seems to be that threads break down with positions seen as police boosters and police bashers and so never get around to discussing stuff like standards, processes and expectations of police behavior. I think that issues of police power and police culture are difficult...
