I thought it was weed. Please, elaborate/cite so I can add this to my routine
Rob Ford was mayor of Toronto, and he was filmed on video smoking crack.
He was an extremely conservative mayor who axed a lot of social programs and privatized things like garbage collection.
And this is Doug, Rob's (who passed away) brother. Doug likely got Rob into drugs in the first place, as he's a known former dealer.
I wonder if he has any guilt over it
Have you not seen his default shit-eating grin expression that he has all the time? The man is scum and regrets nothing that doesn't actively lose him money.
Doesn't he kinda lose himself money?. Like, their little sticker factory isnt printing many stackz these days
The most hilarious (and sad) thing about our province is that it's run by a sticker salesman who both doesn't want to sell profitable stickers (license plate renewals), and who sold defective stickers (blue license plate stickers).
The blue things...they weren't Decko or whatever the fuck his magic sticker factory is named?
They were 3M iirc.
That must have annoyed him to watch all that money leaving the tableβunless they made it worth his "wiles" lol
I think he was just utterly flabbergasted that something could leave the table. I mean, it must be absolutely yuge. EVERYTHING is always on it..
"It's all on the table, folks!"

Still my fave mayor of all time /s
Edit: I lied! Its Mayor Adam West ;)
Nobody messes with Adam We.
I will say the casting was amazing for Adam West and I also deeply appreciate the performance and casting of his spiritual successor, Sam Elliott as Mayor West II
They seriously privatized that? Fuck. Is it a disaster or did it actually "work out", what's the verdict?
Just wait until you hear about what his brother wants to do. Privatize healthcare. And conservatives are jumping for joy about it.
Kinda weird that conservatives bitch non stop about a few bucks in taxes, but think paying $15,000 out of pocket for an x-ray is the way.
Sadly, I don't see public healthcare surviving into the 2030s in this country. Too many people subscribe to the IDU-funded propaganda that two-tier is a "good thing", and that's the leading edge of a slippery slope to a sheer cliff.. The Provinces (mostly run by Cons) are bleeding the system. PP will deliver the death blow unless he's stopped from getting into power.
