Well I think that about does it for this thread. It's been a slice! So long folks.

C'mon Jimmi, you've been around long enough to know that any rumours of this thread's death are greatly exaggerated. By-election camping starts May 4th.

why is Warmington tagging Rob's twitter??

Yes, perhaps it is time to deactivate all social media for a guy who is kind of dead...

Back to conspiracy theory, maybe Rob's not really dead. Or Worms is just stunned.

Mayhaps she was making sure he was most sincerely dead.

As apposed to mostly dead?

The Rob Ford story is not over. Much is yet to be learned, and seen. And a streetcar route to be named after him (St. Clair... shhhh!).

As for Stephanie's speech -

It means so much to my brother Dougie and I.​

- I detect the hand of uncle Doug.

She didn't say pussy once so it wasn't Renata.

There was no need for Wynne to be there, given that the Lt.Gov was present.

They are not the same branches of government.

Exactly. Representing the people of Ontario is a Head of State role, so as head of government Wynne had an excuse not to go. This is precisely the sort of reason why we waste all that money on Lt.Govs and Gov Gens.

@dmrider @TorontoRobFord@TheTorontoSun sources say david price asked to leave rob ford celebration over TV interview he did at visitation

We can't have anyone getting more attention invading our privacy mourn a friend or celebrate life unless we allow them.

So did Warmington not get into the funeral? He posted a bunch of pics from outside but that was it.

Maybe she is an evil leftie who went so that prime seating would be denied to the throngs of griefing nationals out there.

Interesting, Amin Massoudi and Dan Jacobs were not mentioned. Did anyone see them? What about Iola?

I saw Massoudi on the livestream in front of the church. He gave Renata a long hug. I also saw Kathy and her rarely-seen daughter, Jennifer.

Speaking to me and Warmington, Michael Ford says he hasn't yet spoken to Doug about who might run in ward 2.

Jonathan Goldsbie @goldsbie
Warmington pointed out that it should be Michael's decision alone to make. Michael wasn't so sure about that.

I knew he didn't care about being a trustee...
