Just out now in the Globe: The tipster who prompted Rob Ford’s chief of staff to go to police about a video allegedly showing the mayor smoking crack cocaine was Dave Price, a staffer in the mayor’s office and longtime friend of the Ford family. Late on May 17, the

Spotted yesterday in Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. This youngster from Canada was planning on taking kiteboarding lessons, but since there wasn’t a lot of wind, he opted for the wake boarding part. Damn, his name is on the tip of my tongue.

After more than a week of extraordinary revelations, another one this morning: the Star is reporting that someone senior in Rob Ford’s office – paid for by Ford’s mythologized taxpayer – knew where to find the video of Ford smoking crack cocaine. That is, the video that Ford now confidently

It’s a mystery wrapped in an enigma: Why did Nigel Wright destroy his political career to protect Mike Duffy? In Ottawa political circles, it’s one of the many Senate scandal questions now being mooted every day. Why would the prime minister’s chief of staff — the most powerful unelected person

H/T Cheyenne. SFH’s new record will fit right in!

…and Ford’s two most-senior comms aides resign. All he has left are the young men who pass out fridge magnets at funerals, apparently.

From the front page of this morning’s Globe: A senior member of Rob Ford’s office was interviewed by police last week about a tip linking a video allegedly showing the mayor smoking illicit drugs to a recent Toronto homicide, two separate sources have confirmed. The staffer felt compelled to share

Gone? In candid moments, and when no microphones are in the vicinity, progressive political operatives will admit they want to keep Rob Ford around. They don’t want him gone, at all. Liberal and New Democrat strategists know the truth: Toronto’s conservative mayor is the political gift that keeps on giving.

The Globe finally publishes their long-awaited – and what has long been known in Toronto political circles – Ford-drug-dealers investigation. Parts worth reading: There were usually a number of dealers to choose from, some of them supplied by a mainstay at James Gardens – a young man with the hulk-like

So, he doesn’t use crack. Present tense, not past. He looked confident, and sounded defiant. He clearly doesn’t believe the video will ever see the light of day. That’s a direct challenge to you, journalists. Now, we all get to see if there are any true investigative reporters left in this

I literally snapped this shot while walking through an alley on Queen West last night. Sent it to Bjorn, and he got to work.  Here, then, is the art for SFH’s newest tune, recorded (and videotaped) at a location that will not be disclosed (they don’t want to be harassed by

I kind of doubt that Harper will be in attendance at Rob Ford’s barbecue this year. This morning’s headlines – in which Ford’s former Chief of Staff confirms that Ford has a substance abuse problem, and that martial law is about to be declared in North America’s fourth-largest city –

This is fun!  Just did a phoner with CITY-TV about the latest installment in this three-ring circus masquerading as a municipal government: Rob Ford just fired his most senior, and most loyal, guy: his Chief of Staff. Anyway.  Just thought I’d post the screen grab, because it struck me as

Because truth’s a defence, that’s why. And the truth, she’s a-comin’.

I have arrived – about three decades after the fact.  Check this out: “Penultimate song ’14′ saw a mass stage invasion, followed by Harry Violent rejoining the band on stage for a cover of The Hot Nasties’ ‘Invasion Of The Tribbles’, which concluded with all members of the group, except

Forget about the conflict of interest allegations, and the slurs against minorities and gays. Forget about the appalling lapses in judgment, like passing out fridge magnets at Peter Worthington’s funeral yesterday.  Forget about all of that. In researching my Sunday column, I marvelled at how much shit this bloody fool

Wow. Just, wow. The problem is the drug allegations have now paralyzed this agenda. It’s a distraction that utterly undermines Ford’s ability to manage a dysfunctional council that opposes any notion of restraint. Ford needs to directly address these allegations, or get help and step aside. He must be prepared,

From “mikesunday,” at shawnawilliams@outlook.com: re Rob Ford. Do me a favor go fuck yourself you fucken idioit. you should not talk the way you do you fucken fool I think you smoke crack you fucken junkie. 24.114.69.49

Who are these guys? They’re Rob Ford staffers, that’s who they are, passing out Rob Ford business cards and fridge magnets at Peter Worthington’s funeral. I am not making this up. Snapped by CP24 reporter Katie Simpson.

If you’re a conservative, and you still support this human shrapnel machine, you’re an idiot.
