Ford Nation is venting it's spleen in the comments section of the story. ;D. Fun to read the meltdowns.

> the new thriller film 'Run This Town'.
"Run this town"? Not really. They couldn't fire Rob. Because, unlike an employee, he could not be fired. He was a politician.
So, they took his power and gave it to Deputy Mayor Norm Kelly. Norm Kelly was really the unsung hero of the 2010-2014 era. Rob's only term as mayor. Rob got the headlines, and the Kimmel show. But, Norm ran this town.
That's Rob and Norm ( back to camera ) in the attached pic.
Maybe Ford Nation will make their comeback soon, and "Run this province"?
Deja vu all over again.

The next few months will be interesting, that's for sure. :nod:

The cartoon war in Radio Chatter reminded me of the political process for removal of power here in Canada.
eg: There was a lack of confidence in the ability to govern - especially during a state of emergency - of the mayor of Canada's largest city a few years ago.
He wasn't an employee, so he couldn't be fired. There had to be a vote.
Fortunately, the vote was non-partisan. So, party politics were not a factor. The vote passed almost unanimously.
To say the individual was displeased would be an understatement.
Not sure if there are any other examples of removal of power to govern during a state of emergency - while keeping the individual on the payroll and political figurehead - have happened anywhere else in Canada.
Edit grammar.
