I guess if you want to close libraries it's no surprise you wouldn't show up to a library groundbreaking.

So Ford won't show up for library groundbreakings and park openings -- will he show up to any city-building events?

Well apparently he is planning to attend the groundbreaking ceremony for the Ripley's Aquarium

So no to public infrastructure events, but yes to commercial tourist traps?

Great, just great.

This mayoralty sure has people talking. With every outing that I take, of late, I hear dissin' going on, in theatre and/or cinema lobbies, in restaurants, in lineups, in stores. I have yet to hear anyone in these groups defending mayortwins and their entourage.

This is all downtown action I'm referring to, but consider also that I've got suburban relatives who really regret having voted for the mayortwins.

So, there is a good outcome of all of this, people chatting about politics.

At least he is showing up and not getting his brother to stand in.....

Scandalous! Ignoring the suburbs while catering to the downtown elite!

It's odd that nobody mentioned here that Ford attended Caribana to party it up just weeks after not being able to find a couple of minutes to attend a single of at least a dozen Pride events spread out over 10 days.

It's not odd. He's a homophobe. Nothing else to say.

Gee..hasn't that already been added to his 232 page resume.

Might be because they had food. I wonder if he attended the Taste on the Danforth, despite the closing of Danforth Avenue to vehicle traffic.

He was apparently there - with a police guard. (They were doubtless guarding the Tim Bits.)

 

[GraphicMatt]

Parked illegally, too. Maybe it's time to hold him to hold him to his election promise to paint the curbs different colours so people know where they can park!

I'm sure he could have found something to eat at Pride, if he really wanted to.

 

[nfitz]

Off topic a bit, but these threats on Ford's life ... that's a horrible prospect. Nothing worse could happen than turning the guy into a martyr. Nothing.

Agreed.

However, death threats are nothing new ... there's always a few crazies out there.

The only thing unusual about Ford's death threats, is that his media folk are issuing press releases. I guess this is the first time the Mayor is crazier than the crazies!

Yeah, and he's scared it'd be somebody else's tubesteak, if you get my drift.
