POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUNM IN TORONTO'S GLOBE AND MAIL
"We cannot let
authorities like Mr Ford manipulate language in the public sphere in this
way..."
Yes, indeed.
Although, for thinking people, when a man, a 315 pound man
at that, tells us he was "accosted" by a TTC operator, you already
know you've entered cloudcuckooland.
The mayor is an unbalanced man, and "unbalanced"
is the kind word.

agree, in the interests of public safety, that the city should hire a 24/7
driver for His Worship. The car should be a former police cruiser, with no
handles on the back doors and a big, red siren so everyone knows when he is
coming."
Yes, but the vehicle needs to be something like the St
Hubert Chicken delivery cars in Montreal.
With a big yellow, plastic, lighted-up chicken on top.
