    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.

        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.
