I don't actually have the hate for Ford that many do.
He was extremely respectful of his constituents. He always returned everybody's calls. He called one of my buddy's on a Friday evening in response to a text that he sent to Rob a couple of weeks prior. I also think he had good intentions and is a genuinely pretty decent guy.
However, he did have the tendency to be a bit spontaneous and not think before he acts, which is really what did him in the end. I don't think he's as bad as Doug, but his mouth got him in trouble more often than not.
With that being said, this conflict of interest ordeal is inexcusable. In the end, I imagine it will up to Toronto voters to decide if they still want as mayor. I seem to recall a similar conflict of interest issue with McCallion in Mississauga not too long ago, not sure what ever came of it. Maybe her popularity kept her from having a similar fate as Ford.
