Why can't he just go away? It's starting to look like he's going for it:

"Later Thursday, Ford is set to guest co-host the Newstalk 1010 radio show Live Drive from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m."

Ya, Sandro seemed totally unprepared for the chaotic scene and didn't know what to do.

His first court appearance was a mess with the media but the second one he showed vast improvement. I was pretty impressed by his fake out and 180 to avoid the media. He came out, turned right, the media followed and he spun around, broke free, and got into the car.

Should the first one be 2014?

She just confirmed 2015.

I wondered that too but Jude RT'd the way it was written, so over 1 year to wait. Wasn't the other COI resolved much faster?

It depends in part on how long the trial is set for. If I recall correctly the last one was only a couple of days - it looks like this one is set for a week. The longer the trial, the longer you generally have to wait for court time.

Hey Jeff Silverstein (Mayor Ford and Doug Ford's former spox) is on CP24 giving advice to Jian Ghomeshi.

Ok...

Ann Hui @annhui
Silverstein says that Ford sought help for his problem (even though it was after months of denials). Says Ghomeshi should do the same

As others have confirmed, no. I assumed December 2015 was a typo until I saw the second one and Jude's response to it.

Actually, 11:00 is when reporters will begin waiting for Doug's late arrival. Actual time of announcement TBD.

if there's even a tiny bit of justice in the world, the media won't show up. or, a handful of obscure rags will send their cub reporters.

i'm not holding my breath on that.

FFS. And you know what's even scarier? He can absolutely win in 2018. If he can win the majority of votes in Etobicoke, York and Scarborough, he can totally win Brampton, Keswick and Nepean.

Technicolor?

That's got to be the biggest, craziest perp walk Toronto's ever seen. #JianGhomeshi

It was happening right outside my office window. It was a cavalcade of cuckoo. Bad craziness.

So it seems both RoFo and The Ghomer hit their women.

Some say that these guys do the unthinkable because they think they're special and know they can get away with it.

I actually think these guys insecurity is so deep that they constantly worry that they will be found out as being actually the same as everybody else in one or more ways, or at least not special.

Then they do the unthinkable to prove to themselves they can get away with it, thereby also proving that they are really *not* like everyone else. An "expensive" kind of narcissistic supply.

Temporary relief. Rinse (or not) and Repeat.

Well, if he does, he will have to attack the widow of Jim Flaherty, his political idol. That should be fun...

Doug has a knack for knocking the legs out from under recent widows...

 

[animatronic]

So let's assume that dofo wins the leadership. Does that mean Hudak will give up his seat? Niagara West liked Tim's genuine religious beliefs - perhaps they won't be so excited about Doug's value system.

Knowing Dougie, it's more likely that a byelection will be precipitated by Shafiq Qaadri dying "mysteriously".

I wonder how long Mutey will pretend to enjoy being a trustee until it is clear that Rob can't represent Ward 2 anymore.
