I'm sure by now you all recognize the name of Rob Ford, mayor of Toronto. He's become a national embarrassment, even though he was doing an OK job as mayor before the crack hit the fan.
Since then it's gone from bad to worse, and I can't believe he hasn't resigned (There is no way to force him out of office unless he is arrested, charged and convicted.) Anyway, just wanted to note that we have heard all his rants uncensored on Canadian news sources. Usually it's just what you would expect to hear under the bleeps, but I still don't get the one where he said he was accused of offering to eat a councillor's cat.
Enjoy it while it lasts. I'd predict he won't last, but so far he's passed three of my deadlines to resign.
Canadian politics can be even more fun that American. Sometimes.
