i wouldn't be surprised if the surgeon told us that in his professional opinion, the mayor's tumor has a malignant rob ford.

ftfy.

I like that doctor. Now comes the big decision for the Ford's tomorrow

 

[evvabeing]

but back when Devlin was trashing Tory, John Tory was still a Ford family friend himself, no? I think he was still defending Rob on his radio show halfway through 2013.

remember this?

As for that political franchise, few knew that the Fords had a long-term game plan. John Tory discovered it in 2003, when he was running for mayor against David Miller. Advised that he ought to seek out the blessing of Ford’s father, who was then regarded as the reigning power broker in Etobicoke, Tory arranged a lunch date with the retired MPP. When he arrived, he found Doug Sr. waiting to size him up along with Diane and all three of their burly blond sons. After an hour of pleasant chatter, Diane Ford got to the point. “She said, ‘Well, we think you’re a pretty good fellow and we’re going to support you for mayor,’ †Tory recalls. “ ‘You can serve for a couple of terms and then it’ll be Robbie’s turn.’ â€

it's like they just got the order backwards.

Oh, FFS. Really? Like you can't find older clips on YouTube in which she speaks with pretty much the same accent that she has now?

And yes, you're right: if the Cantonese-speaking electorate were that important, she'd be all over the Asian media and at all the Asian events, which I don't think has been the case.

If anything, I think her accent has become less obvious, almost as if she's worked on it.

also remember that those that pick on someone for how they speak another language, usually only know one language themselves.

What's the basis for describing the head of the hospital as a family friend? I've seen it mentioned here a couple times, but is it anything more than speculation based on being in the same part of town and members of the Conservative Party?

devlin's time as pc party leader overlaps with doug sr. being an mpp...

i'll wager that dofo joins the race and that both rodofo will be on the ballot.

 

[sweetlou]

if you are a patient at albany and are referred for something like a colonoscopy, you are sent to a greenestone clinic... usually the one at yonge and finch.

They also do some colonoscopies right at the Albany Clinic. Ask me how I know.

Before this happened, everyone PM'ed basic a guess at what percentage of the vote Ford would get. I guess it is too late to do one for whether he drops out tomorrow.

I remember years ago asking a lady patient why she tried to finish herself off. She told me, that her shrink told her, "Maybe life isn't for everyone."

Wow. If, indeed, a psychiatrist/psychologist said this, he/she should lose their licence.

[Bob But Not Doug]

i'll wager that dofo joins the race and that both rodofo will be on the ballot.

Why would they want to split the vote?

Why would they want to split the vote?

Doug or Rob can later drop out of the race, depending on how things go at Mount Sinai.
