This is the most exciting race in years they're saying. People are interested, its a hot topic, and they expect a far higher turnout of voters this time around.

Landslide victory for mayor-elect Rob Ford. Both Smitherman and Pantalone combined would have just nearly beat him

TBH i'm quite surprised how right-wing'd Toronto has become. A lot of new councillors are in that have Ford like campaigns. Guess Toronto isn't so liberal as it strongly was for the last few decades which is quite :|

After reading up on the dude, I have to agree: Rob Ford is quite possibly insane.

I am prejudiced, though, because I use a bike to get to work. According to Ford, it would thus be my fault if I get killed in traffic on the way there. Nice guy.
But the uninformed views he has on AIDS, the homeless and his bigoted views on gay marriage are what sealed the deal for me. His prejudices towards those "oriental people [who] work like dogs. [...] they're slowly taking over [...]." aren't helping either. He sounds like a giant douche, especially taking his weird behaviour at a hockey game, his DUI and other shit into account.

Seriously, if he was the winning candidate, who was he running against, Robert Pickton?

lol'd at lesbians (: Henry, I was mostly helping a councillor in our area since he's a friend. And Michiel, he was running against people who were encouraging higher taxes than we already have. I think people were fedup, though after 4 years I don't think he'll win, anyways the media was heavily attacking him hardcore throughout the campaign, but the other candidates had quite a few scandals themselves like Smitherman's ehealth scandal etc

Yeah, I have to admit my knowledge of Canadian politics is pretty much zero.

Don't know about the tax situation in Canada either, but when I see it come up with Tea Party supporters in the US it always cracks me up. Being uninformed is almost being championed there now. Lower taxes! Less spending! Well, which do you want? You can't really have both in a recession. Less money to social programs! But, don't touch my Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid.

With bullshit like that going on, any candidate (even Canadian ones) that even only appear to be bigots scare the crap out of me.
