I hope Massoudi goes down with Ford---he's a real scumbag. It seems like he might, if that whole Vice magazine thing about him trying to get a hacker to destroy the crack video was on the level. Which I think it is.

Because the average person is a moron, and Toronto is full of average people (except me and youse guys). I encounter Ford supporters every day, and am surprised they can breath out their noses.

The plot lines on this story are all pretty amazing aren't they. The story line makes "Movie 43" look like "Ghandi"...

Media waiting for Rob Ford to leave the Clocktower Brew Pub in the Glebe.
RoFo seemed groggy and disheveled at meeting this morning. No makeup or anything.
Methinks he had to spend "personal time" in bathroom to transform, mysteriously
into his new persona 'Steak Queen'.

Toronto Star has a story featuring Blair's first response to the Steak Queen video. Teased with this tweet:

Chief Bill Blair and I just spoke about Coun. Doug Ford's OIPRD complaint. He said Lisi warned investigators a complaint was coming.

Daniel Dale has totally stepped up his game. He has become more strategic in approach and more pointed in his comments while avoiding stooping to the Fords' level of thugnacity. He is a man on a mission, and I think/hope this mission will benefit our city as much as it benefits his career!

OMG. I'm an EA and if I sent one of my partners off to a major meeting, booked them a flight back with conflicted with a clearly labeled important face-to-face, my arse would be grass. How do I get this cushy, don't-need-to-pay-attention-to-agendas job?

Blair seems confident in addressing the press. Anyone want to read into that?
What I find particularly interesting is that the mention of a complaint was made before Blair made the comment about being offended.

This sounds pretty combative. Would it suggest that Lisi isn't cooperating with the police?

Who knows but I'm pretty sure that the tone Lisi is setting will basically give Blair a "get out of jail free" card on the complaint when they draw the conclusion that the Bros. Ford are continually conspiring and colluding with Lisi - End Game could be very close at hand...

I'm pretty sure the Chief has excellent advisers...

That's a slippery slope, and frankly not very true. The average person is not a moron. Most are reasoned and intelligent. It is personal biases and upbringing that created who we are, and what political choices me make.
Saying the average person is a moron creates a delineation of superiority. "We're smarter than everyone else" is the type of thinking that drives dictatorships and genocides, if enough people believe it to be true.
For every die-hard Neill Flagg, there are a hundred reasoned people who support Ford. Not because they're morons, but because his past "constituency work" swayed their opinion, or maybe they just don't know enough of the facts, or maybe they just support the man out of spite of the pretentiousness of comments like yours.
I am no Ford supporter. I hate the man with the heat of a thousand exploding stars. And even I make fun of dumb comments made by the die-hards. But damn, stating "the average person is a moron" is so far removed from reality (and compassion, and reason) that even I cringed at the blatant ignorance of it.
