A brief statement from the Ford family announcing the death Tuesday described the former mayor as a “dedicated man of the people” who “spent his life serving the citizens of Toronto.”
I'm reading this as "...described the former mayor as a 'moron' who 'spent his life serving the citizens of Toronto narcotics and incompetence in equal measure.'"
I do wish his loved ones well. It's not easy to deal with the damage of addiction, including the aftermath.
Well, the guy was Canada's answer to Donald Trump - but also with a mammoth substance problem along with a heroic sense of public service. I was relieved when he left the mayor's office, but what the hell, it was just Toronto.
I was sad to hear the news today. He leaves a young family.
Rob Ford was a terrible mayor but he was an exceptionally good city counsellor before that. When people in his district had problems, he helped them. He worked long days and earned his place in the city government. Then he became a truly awful mayor.
