Toronto Mayor Rob Ford Booted From Office

[obsidian]

Tweedle Dee is deflecting the issue, this isn't so much about whether anyone on council has ever used illegal drugs. The issue is that his brother, Tweedle Dum, has a serious substance abuse problem and has lied multiple times about it, and has ties to people of questionable backgrounds.

The Ford Nation is going insane....which is of course, fucking awesome.

Anymore funny ?, keep it coming

The football jersey he's wearing in the video was his dresscode for the council meeting ? lol

Rob Ford stripped of key powers in council vote

Toronto city council has voted to both remove Mayor Rob Ford's authority during emergency situations and, under a separate motion, has stripped his power to hire and fire the deputy mayor and appoint members of his executive committee.

The motions passed 41-2 and 39-3, respectively, at council's meeting Friday morning. They are the first of three motions aimed at leaving Ford as mayor in name only. He will continue his last 11 months as mayor with severely limited powers. Ford still has the authority to declare an emergency but, in that event, authority would pass to the deputy mayor.

The vote on the third motion is expected Monday. It would reduce his staff and office budget to that of a regular city councillor.

He won't go away, though. Conservatives like him are too fucking hard-headed and stupid to admit defeat or even learn from their misdeeds.

Now Canada has it's own Turd-blossom.

[Plan B]

So what, he's basically an "honorary" mayor now?
Instead of just neutering him, doesn't this coucil have the power to just get rid of him entirely?
It's all very funny, of course, but (in theory) this guy is still running a major city.

Normal people would have resigned a long time ago. But this guy is apparently actually getting off on all the drama.

We still have Baird, McKay, Harper, etc.

It's an entire turd-tree in a turd forest in full turd-blossom.

Canada is turning into garbage. Sorry folks, but it's just the truth.

It's not just Canada's politics that has turned stupid the last 20 years, but the country's people. The bell curve is a perfect match to America's insanity and the Rise Of Alberta gave - and continues to give - those insane rightwing fucks legitimacy.

Truthfully: Sept 11, 2001 fucked Canada up more than it did the yanks.

I see the average Canadian as no smarter than the average redneck and every bit as vain and self-centred. The further west you go past Thunder Bay, the worse it gets.

That crack remix

[GONNAFISTYA]

I was at a restaurant for lunch today and they had TSN on the telly. Apparently two new developments have come to light:

1) Ford Motor Company wants people from "Ford Nation" to stop using their logo on their t-shirts.

2) The Toronto Argonauts Football team have distanced themselves from Rob Ford wearing their jersey to work at the city hall, giving press scrums and talking about "eating pussy".

He's cancer and it's only a matter of time before everyone abandons him, he slinks out of public life and kills himself in his basement surrounded by empty bottles of booze and crack pipes.

Can't happen soon enough.

The old adage "people deserve the government they get", then?
Seems kind of fatalistic.
Surely there are enough sound minds present, even in Canada, to restore order?


I'm kind of puzzled about why events in the US (9/11) would have an impact on this topic, though.
Canadian mayors smoking crack. Rob Ford in particular. Let's keep it focussed!

Is there not a country in the world that's not full of idiots? What's the go-to country these days?

[GONNAFISTYA]

Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Netherlands, Germany, France, Australia.

There are lots of better places that aren't run by idiots. Pull your yank head out of your yank ass and look around.

I've been saying for decades that humanity still needs several thousand years of evolution before we get past this. We are simply unable to do it right now, because we still have too many monkey tendancies....such as flinging shit at each other and burning the whole thing down out of spite.

You'd think. But you'd be wrong.

It's a long story, but let's just say 9/11 unleashed the rednecks of Canada (crazy people Canada never even knew they had) and more than a decade of Harper has emboldened them. America was always paranoid and greedy, and now Canada is following suit. Those unleashed freaks aren't going away now. The genie is out of the bottle...exactly the same problem the yanks have in their political system. In short: Rob Ford and people like him wouldn't have stood a chance politically 15 years ago in Canada, now they're the rabid "normal".

The Rob Ford Nation is just Toronto's local version of the Tea Party.

You're forgetting Mel Lastman, who somehow has become only the second worst mayor in Toronto's history

The conservatives have built themselves a great platform. They have the support of white retards and evil Indians around the country which should naturally give them a landslide victory in every election, yet they still have to cheat to win. Every Indian that falls off a curry ship is readily being greeted by conservative MPs and given an info pamphlet on how to make this country even worse. They get away with a lot of shit when a million Bramptonites hand out votes to anyone who swings from their asshairs. I saw it first-hand when I got my Canadian citizenship last year and the MPs were there with fake smiles ready to welcome a new boatload of welfare maggots. I was probably the only soap-using anglophone in the entire room.
