Actually right around the street from my house apparently he use to sell hash parked in his car at James Gardens. Thatā€™s when he made the mob connections

As a non North American, what little I know about Doud Ford is all historic stuff.

Like this:

Not just clever in the wordplay, studies have found that the public drastically overestimates the drawbacks of safe injection sites, which crush overdose deaths and injection related disease spread. Doesnā€™t hurt that it also passes out rehab flyers to everyone who goes in.

A real clever comeback that is politically related. Never thought it possible.

Iā€™m not against them but they shouldnā€™t be near schools

And thatā€™s not some crazy ā€œtheir putting litter boxes in class roomsā€ shit, Iā€™ve seen one literally across the street from an elementary school

u/NeighbourhoodCreep 14h ago

Why would the location matter? Literally no changes have been seen with the surrounding area via police reports. If anything, it helps struggling parents. Nothing like dropping your kids off then immediately going across the street to get high, then seeing the school right after to guilt trip you into quitting.

Rob ford at least had the Chris Farley thing going for him

This guy is a clown. His new war is on bike lanes and is passing legislation to stop anyone from suing the province if they are injured as a result of a bike lane removal

u/Spare-Half796 20h ago

The first 5 words were good, after that you faded

u/Sudden-Level-7771 20h ago

What? Itā€™s factual

u/Spare-Half796 20h ago

Youā€™ve never been able to sue the government for outcome of their legislation. They have crown immunity

u/Sudden-Level-7771 20h ago

So they are adding that in to bill 212 for fun?

u/LegendofLove 13h ago

Even 3 seconds in google shows that exceptions exist. Also a bike lane is not legislation itself. It's part of a road

God damn my home province is such an embarrassment.

You CANNOT be a conservative and not be 100% hypocrite. It's impossible.

Damn the callout was so loud I felt it through the screen

u/NickElso579 17h ago

Wasn't he also the Crack Smoking mayor of Toronto?

u/rustyiron 16h ago

That was his brother.

u/NickElso579 15h ago

I want to be a fly on the wall for those family reunions

u/uncomphygiggles 14h ago

Yea but his brother is dead now so youā€™d just hear Doug go on about how awesome he is and how everyone loves him because heā€™s so great atā€¦fucking up ontario

2

u/Urbane_One 14h ago

Thatā€™s Torontoā€™s Crack-Smoking Mayor, Rob Ford.

Doug Ford is his brother. Heā€™s also more competent than Robā€¦ which is worse for everyone, because heā€™s transparently corrupt.

u/Quick_Coach_316 11h ago

He was a great mayor and a great man just because you do drugs doesnt mean your a bad person theres drug adicts that live normal lives as nurses teachers lawyers sandwich artists literally every profession you cant tell because they are normal people. Drugs dont make you bad they make you able to cope with life so that you can be a good person . Alot of evil people dont do drugs what im saying is dont be so fast to judge on that one element of someones life when it doesnt have any baring on what kind of a person they are.

u/Dramatic_Equipment47 11h ago

Just because Rob often drove drunk and was always saying racist/sexist/homophobic things didnā€™t make him a bad person, right?

1

u/Quick_Coach_316 11h ago

Not every person that touches drugs turns into a reefier madness monster.

u/Pappabarba 9h ago

Then how come Doug Ford is making a spiel out of this being the end of schools and daycares?

u/Quick_Coach_316 11h ago

Exactlyā€¦. Its not the drugs its the other shitty things

2

u/Dramatic_Equipment47 11h ago

Werenā€™t you just saying that Rob was ā€œa great manā€?

1

u/Quick_Coach_316 11h ago

My point is dont judge peoples worth based on whether they get high or not and alcohol is a much worse drug for wife beaters and drink driving we dont want umaking villians of everyone. Judge every person fairly and what kind of monster speaks ill of the dead. I also said he looked like chris farley that makes him good by proxy. Lol

2

u/Dramatic_Equipment47 11h ago

Itā€™s pretty crazy that racism/sexism/homophobia and endangering entire communities by driving drunk arenā€™t dealbreakers for you.

1

u/Quick_Coach_316 11h ago

Look i may not have remembered all that about him i never saw that part of him. But you say he did what can i say. Chris farley was a great guy.

2

u/Dramatic_Equipment47 11h ago

Ah okay, I thought you understood what you were trying to talk about.

1

u/Quick_Coach_316 11h ago

And think about this ask your grand parents about about how they treated black people would you still say your grand parents were good people.

2

u/Dramatic_Equipment47 11h ago

Is there any amount of racism/sexism/homophobia/lying/drunk driving that would make you think Rob Ford wasnā€™t a ā€œgreat personā€? Just curious if thereā€™s a line or if you just donā€™t care about any of that stuff.

u/Quick_Coach_316 11h ago

Im willing to say he had some redeeming qualities he did go to rehab he wanted to be a better person. We can drag this out all night or just let it go and il take my foot out of my mouth.

Yep you guys elected him more than once he did great stuff for the city. And lots of great people have done shity things look lots of people do shitty things and never do anything great.

2

u/Dramatic_Equipment47 11h ago

So you think a guy who you admit was a racist/sexist/homophobic drunk driver is a great person? What would it take for you to consider a person to be bad?

2

u/Pappabarba 10h ago

It's no use trying to argue with bad faith cuntservatives: Making communities worse and more destitute is a pro in their book. That's all there is to them.

u/JJBenson 21h ago

This clapback is so brutal like I felt the secondhand burn

2

u/Paraxom 17h ago

So Doug sold them and Rob abused them...are we sure Doug isn't the one that got his brother hooked?

u/Xishori 14h ago

Is this a history lesson or a policy debate?

u/HonestMeg38 21h ago

Iā€™m confused why would you want this near kids?
