You know, elections/by-elections aren't exactly cheap. How much is this going to end up costing us just because this clan of narcissistic sociopaths insisted on running a man last time that they knew was deathly ill, and likely wouldn't even end up finishing the full term, let alone be able to do his job properly? More of the Fords' fabled "respect for the taxpayers," eh? Has anyone in the media bothered to point this out?
Mikey may be a decent enough young guy - compared to the rest of his loathsome family, I'm sure he is - but it doesn't speak well of him that he's going along with this garbage. He's just a kid, and to put it politely, there's nothing about him that suggests he's anything special. If he'd actually continued working as a TDSB trustee for a while, and then decided to try his hand at public office, say, 10 years down the line, I think he'd be considerably more justified. But this? It just stinks of his family's typical epic hubris and casual presumption. He has no business running for public office with nothing to recommend him but his (rather cynically adopted) name.
