What a bizarre, infuriating mayoralty Rob Ford managed to inflict on the City of Toronto. Today’s court ruling against him, and his apparent deposition as a result, is very welcome. That the chief magistrate of one of the largest cities in North America has been an incompetent, lying overgrown child is simply unacceptable. Here Toronto Star urban affairs critic Christopher Hume sensibly suggests that it’s time to move on and be constructive. I heartily agree.
