39. Debate after debate Rob claimed there were no labour strikes under his leadership. Library workers went on strike for nearly two weeks in 2012.

43. Doug Ford - "I've never needed a defense attorney in my life." Didn't he consult one re the Bill Blair lawsuit? At the very least, he did need one in that instance, until he decided to apologize to Chief Blair; which resulted in the lawsuit being dropped.
P.S. With today's news of a conflict of interest suit against the Ford brothers; this makes Doug's need for a defense attorney true.

The responses so far been great everyone. "church mouse" I forgot about that. Classic. Thank you for the kind words Mikki on the Ford thread, nice contribution. Somebody linked this thread on twitter, which was cool. Almost half way through.
44. Rob Ford says "The private sector will step in to provide the $4 billion needed to build the subway extension" Professional lie. Well that didn't happen.
45. Doug Ford "I never seen my brother Rob drink". Personal lie. Said during CFRB Ford shill Jerry Agar interview with Doug during the reports of Rob's public drunkenness. Jerry Agar taken aback with the obvious BS tries to allow Doug to step back from the obvious like and asks "You never seen him drink ANY alcohol at any time?" Doug doubles down "I don't know, I never seen it". Few weeks later Wormington doing a piece of how "regular guys the Fords are" had a picture of Doug and a red faced Rob at a Leafs game with what Rob with a beer cup to what looks obviously as beer in it.
46. "Personally return hundreds of calls a day" professional lie from Robbie. Okay even though her said plural "hundreds" Let's round it down to a an even hundred. For Ford to return a 100 calls a day he would need to return a call every 15 minutes for 24 straight hours EVERY DAY. Let's say he sleeps for six hours. That means he returns a call every TEN minutes for eighteen straight hours a day, while still fitting time for his drinkin' druggin' and hangin with buddies and walking around taking selfies. Safe to say mathematically and logically he exaggerated that number.

47. "98% of the Ford agenda has been implemented" uh, nope, not even close (Doug at tonight's debate)
48. Doug's claim he was endorsed by Charles Sousa
49. Everything he said in the interview with Matt Galloway today
50. That nothing in the Socknacki FOI docs should mayoral staff and resources being used for campaigning.

Ha, I was about to mention that 98% figure. He's said that a few times. How does one arrive at such a random number? What's the 2% they failed to deliver on?

51. Doug and Rob constantly say they've saved the city money by cutting the Vehicle Registration Tax. This is obviously untrue as it removes money from the city coiffures. The fact that they stick to this no matter what anyone says is by far one of the most frustrating things.
52. They've maintained that Toronto has the lowest taxes in North America.
53. Rob assured everyone multiple times that he was done with drinking: http://news.nationalpost.com/2014/0...n-promises-and-statements-at-odds-with-facts/
54. They've lied about the state of TCHC consistently. http://torontoist.com/2013/10/the-rob-and-doug-ford-radio-recap-super-fact-check-edition/
55. Rob took credit for committees and council making their schedule available online. http://torontoist.com/2013/10/the-rob-and-doug-ford-radio-recap-super-fact-check-edition/
56. The broken toe and surgery issue that was never addressed again? http://www.torontosun.com/2014/07/17/mayor-rob-ford-delays-toe-surgery-until-after-election
57. Rob claimed that he had a tumour on his appendix removed back in 2009. That has recently been proven to be a lie. http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2014/09/17/rob_fords_health_history.html
58. Both make ridiculous claims regarding the city's unemployment rate. I'm not sure they have ever gotten this right.

59. I don't have the exact quote, but Doug said in his closing comments at tonight's debate -- and I'm paraphrasing -- "We have more cranes in the sky than New York, Chicago, (some other cities) combined." Obviously that is a lie. We do have more construction going on than any other North American city; but certainly not more than the cities he mentioned, combined.

60. Who bought Rob's Escalade? Rob? "I saved a lot of money for this." Doug? Said it was a "birthday gift" from him and Randy. MTO records indicate the car is registered to Deco and leased from GM Financial Canada Leasing Ltd.

61. Rob claimed that every crane in the sky is 1000 jobs, economists disagree: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/rob-ford-s-cranes-in-the-sky-line-examined-by-economists-1.2607440
62. Rob claimed he is "building subways" "without revenue tools" both are false: http://www.thestar.com/news/city_ha...s_14_untrue_things_at_scarborough_debate.html
63. He also claimed that he was hiring more police officers than any other previous mayor when in actuality there were 300 less officers and a hiring freeze.
64. Rob's claim that Toronto doesn't have subways above ground..... that one is obviously a lie
65. Everything he has said about the St.Clair right of way.
66. Rob claimed that both John and Olivia had proposed a sales tax, I have not seen this from either of them.
67. Rob's claim that Olivia Chow had the highest expenses of any councillor every year she was councillor. Not true, at all. http://www.thestar.com/news/city_ha...s_14_untrue_things_at_scarborough_debate.html
68. Both Rob and Doug have claimed that the first thing John Tory did when he came into provincial office was vote to give himself a 25% raise. False.
69. Rob claimed in a debate that the only tax increase Scarborough residents were going to see for the subway was $5 per household. Not even remotely true.
70. Doug has claimed to have started a basketball league for kids in Ward 2. Andray Domise has thoroughly debunked this.

And why then did R&D Ford then bill the City for 25,390.00 in legal expense for the calender year 2013?

The St. Clair trashing Ford does really gets on my nerves as it could be furthest from the truth. I guess I could go into some more detail in this
71. Fords calls St. Clair streetcar ROW a LRT. It's not.
72. Ford claims people are leaving St. Clair area. While actually people are moving in and property values are going up.
73. Rob Ford "No Service Cuts, Guaranteed" before the last election. Ford cuts bus routs and other public services

Aww we can't stall in the seventies. In honour of Ari Goldkind profession, here are three more.
74. Rob threatens to sue former staff members who talked to authorities about his drug & sexcapades episodes. He never did.
75. Doug threatens to sue the globe and mail about his hash dealing stories. He never did.
76. Rob threatens to sue the Star for him abusing his football team. He never did.
