POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUMN IN TORONTO'S GLOBE AND MAIL
I believe we have Mayor Miller largely to blame for the Rob
Ford farce.
Miller was an incompetent mayor and a blowhard talker.
He did a poor job of looking after basics - garbage,
potholes, and the Gardiner's maintenance - yet he chased after silly objectives
tirelessly, as with his Don Quixote, anti-Island Airport campaign, all the
while raising taxes regularly.
Ford is a form of Montezuma's Revenge.
A lot of ordinary people like Ford’s inarticulate, shady,
and rule-breaking ways, and they don't care whether he's an embarrassment to
the city, which he most certainly is. He's at least not blowhard Miller.
