I, too, read it as an attempt to conflate Tory and Wynne as two "birds of a feather."
And Filion's compassion and empathy did not seem to extend to Renata.

Apr.8,2016
Mayor Rob Ford passed away at the age of 46. Though it was expected, it was still a strong blow to all who knew him well. I was out of Canada when it happened, so I didn’t follow the Canadian media coverage. I couldn’t even force myself to read the internet articles because I was sure that the same people who systematically tried to destroy him would be shedding crocodile tears after he was dead.
Death at 46 is not normal or natural – many people and institutions contributed to that outcome. I struggled with emotions while planning that piece. I thought maybe at such a sad moment I should follow the path of “peace and reconciliation,” the way things felt in the heartbreaking speech of Ford’s little girl Stephanie about how now he was a “Mayor of Heaven”. He sure is.
What the heck did I just read?
That's the theme of this summer's Ford Fest. Limit one self-sacrifice per family.It is unfortunate there was no funeral pyre on which true devotees could immolate themselves.
This thread is running on fumes. Time to close it down and focus on the current Mayor and Councillors!
