I'm patiently awaiting my robocall inviting me to the Congress Center wake. I have no idea how they will get more than 100 people there without actively camping to get people to show up.

I'm sure the media blitz will be on hard on Tuesday/Wednesday though for sure.

Yeah these enablers sure keep them going, and it needs to stop.

"We should have shown more compassion for Rob Ford – while he was alive"

yikes. People would've been willing to forgive the addiction - it was the lying (not just him, but his brother/family) and attendant circus show that pissed people off.

Re this whole City Hall/Cathedral funeral show - Doug and Mom written all over it. For someone who supposedly fought against the "Downtown Elite" he's being given quite the Downtown Elite treatment - City Hall viewing and service in THE WASP Cathedral (when it seems the Fords were United and Renata was Catholic - despite ample space in Metropolitan). Seeing as Ford was ill for some time, do you think he wanted this or is this Dougie?

(So it's better to get a selfie the day of the funeral instead of 2 days before. Got it.)

Watching CityNews, the *eight* pallbearers could barely manage carrying the coffin into City Hall. Doug is happily providing selfies.

I watched the pallbearers live this morning on Breakfast TV, and it was pretty dicey for a few seconds there! I thought for sure that they were going to drop him.
 
This showed up on my Facebook page.
I don't recall any of the Kennedys getting this particular honour. Toronto royalty indeed.

How about judgments based on facts? Oh, right, he's never been charged or convicted, except the once, the COI suit brought by a mere citizen, overturned on appeal because the penalty -removal from office - was too severe?

While Ford was not charged, and he certainly wasn't a criminal mastermind, he admits doing things that most people would have gotten in trouble for when the police were aware.

Idi Amin also wasn't charged or convicted.
