Toronto Mayor reportedly caught smoking crack cocaine

[timfan]

Don't know how much you've heard of this but it's a huge scandal in current Toronto politics!

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford was allegedly seen to be smoking CRACK cocaine on a cell phone video viewed by various reporters. While the video has not yet been shown to be authentic, given Ford's track record I must say IMO this guy has long proven to be a buffoon and hopefully this should be his end!!

I heard about this here since we are so close to TO...but I didn't want to condemn the man...yet...but heard about the cell phone camera and a comment he reportedly made...something like...that thing better not be on...and the person said oh no it's not...ha ha...I don't know anything about this mayor...but if this turns out to be true...off with his head!

It seems to be one thing after another with him!

oh tell me...what else has he done?? I'm curious! lol

Here's an article that sums up his various indiscretions pretty well. There are tons of them but perhaps the biggest prior to this was a judge removed him as mayor for voting on an item he had a interest in (whether he should repay something to the city or not) He appealed the decision succesfully but in reality his win was on a technicality.

Makes me wonder what else he's up to that he hasn't been caught doing -- yet.

I loved Toronto when I was there in 2011. It seems it may have just as many corrupt or at least flawed politicians as Sydney!

Big news today, the Toronto Police chief has announced they've recovered the famed Rob Ford Crack video. Crazy days here!

OMG - I never thought I'd ever see anyone ever want to channel Marion Barry, but I guess I was mistaken!
