    My wife came up with this the other day upon hearing he was ill.

    "So Rob Ford has a tumor. Now he knows how the city of Toronto feels."

    Toronto gave itself a tumor. We Voted for him.

    We are opening some major casino/hotel in the middle of the city (Unless that's changed now) , no good will come out of that in the long term.

    In May 2013, council voted to reject any new gaming facilities in Toronto. In a separate vote, council also voted against the expansion of gaming at the Woodbine Racetrack. This came after months of controversy over a proposed downtown casino, which Mayor Rob Ford initially supported, but then decided it wasn’t in Toronto’s “best interest.”

    Excellent!! I left Toronto just before that and had not followed up.

    I was pretty vocal about it back then, spoke to many people who were right with me.

    Thanks for passing the good news along!

    Too bad for the Maple Leafs ... they have regained their title as the most miss-run organization in Toronto.

    Just curious: what long term negatives (and total lack of good) do you see in a major casino/hotel being in the city?

    I hope I didn't offend PJSoul. My mind is a Price Is Right wheel of pop culture.

    Rob Ford is doing well after surgery. Please, Toronto, re-elect him. Your town is once again boring.

    It's true. Our new Mayor is a squish. Bring back the crack!

    as much as he was in way over his head as mayor ... hard not to feel a bit for him ...

    I don't find it hard at all, to be perfectly honest.
