It means we are watching an internet stalker turn into a meatspace stalker before our very eyes. Last week she announced she had her license back (temporarily if my legal advisors are correct) all the better to stalk you with rob riding hood. He has stopped paying her legal bills so she knows he's not happy about her little talk with a newspaper. Frankly her leverage is losing value daily. If she came out and told the world that she delivered drugs to rehab, had sex in the bushes, met with lisi for deliveries, etc. Would anyone care? No one thinks he got well at Greenestone. Not his detractors, not his supporters. She could have parlayed her knowledge into something weeks ago but its staledated now kinda like her.

FWIW I saw this in the comments. It was posted hours ago.

It's dated yesterday: "No. But her disappearance coincides with the rumour of a video showing Rob Ford smoking crack with the Dixon Bloods. She partied with Ford and the gang. Her car was left abandoned outside 51 Benway, party house. A Toronto police missing person’s report was pulled with no indication that she’d been found. Then a fake FB page was put up claiming she’d decamped to Bangkok."

I know "Sooey" and I'm pretty sure she is not privy to any insider knowledge, just repeating the same speculation that the rest of us have read. I'm inclined to side with Petunia when she says the Facebook profile is not "fake."

Not surprised I was near the bottom, but THE bottom? Obviously I have miscalculated based on blind hatred and over-expectation of logic.

Staff say if the agreement with MLSE is "compromised" today it would delay the @Raptors facility by at least 6 months #TOpoli

This is absurd. Ford wants to hold everything up so he can pretend to care about TCHC residents.

Mayor Rob Ford moves a motion asking MLSE to consider allocating 10% of its community hours for TCHC use.

"We have to concentrate on the youth in these neighbourhoods" Mayor Rob Ford.

All we have to do is make sure youth in these neighbourhoods don't follow in your footsteps...

Don't read much into it. He's in a very crowded place so optics are deceiving. I find it odd that he keeps denouncing closed roads for festivals but doesn't boycott them.

He only denounces it for the festivals he doesn't go to. He's publicly stated that some closures are necessary for events that he happens to like.

He's just extremely selfish. Nothing else.
