The gravy train doesn't exist anymore.

Mayor Ford restored fiscal (monetary) sanity to City Hall, and the budget eventually had a surplus, instead of a deficit. Ford kept Toronto from approaching bankruptcy. He got rid of the vehicle registration tax, and the home transfer tax, and will be here to prevent the left from imposing new taxes and road tolls. He got rid of the Jarvis bike-lanes, which along with Dundas East and Dupont (which still exist) were simply meant to make it harder for cars to get around. Ford suggested that bike lanes should be built where they make sense (like Sherbourne, which was already planned, and now implimented). He ended the "war on the car". This war has been going on since the Eighties, when City Hall decided not to add an off-on ramp directly to the Skydome, since in their words, "it would encourage more cars."

We live in a democracy. Rob Ford is our point-man for sanity, funny as that may sound.

Sure, he looks, and sometimes acts goofy.

Personally, I wouldn't care if he was a cross-dressing transvestite, as long as he got the job done.

And there has been no evidence yet, of crack-smoking, only allegations.

The "group" responsible for get donations, has now well over the $200,000.- asked by the owners of the supposed video. But the sellers seem to have disappeared. If the video is real, then Mayor Ford should resign. Though if the video is real, he was probably just sharing some pot with some locals.


Oh and I live Downtown too.


Ka' Pla !
