An early Xmas present for some Toronto voters.

Ford's sense of entitlement to do as he please was bizarre.

No doubt there will be a weasly appeal and he wont actually get kicked out.


God help us, I hope the electorate doesnt start to feel sorry for the buffoon.

This will have a knock on effect in the job market.

Dozens of Toronto Star reporters will be made redundant now!

One man's peril is another man's blessing

Nothing like becoming a PM, president, mayor etc by deafult is there?

Stepping deputy, as you were

Well, it is good news on the face of it, but the judge made a **** up of the ruling which means he has a way back in even during this term. He'll certainly be able to run in two years time.

I wish he would just eat himself and disappear.

In what way did the Justice "*** up" the decision? Having read it, it would appear that he found against Ford on every issue. The factors that were found to mitigate against banning Ford from running from office in the future also appear to make sense.
