It's a damn shame that John Tory is running for mayor, I really wanted to see Rob Ford get re-elected.

Rob Ford is flying to Los Angeles for the Oscars and Jimmy Kimmel


Quote:
Toronto Mayor Rob Ford is heading to the Oscars on Sunday followed by an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday, the Toronto Sun reports. “I am going to the Oscars. It’s going to be fun,” Ford told the Sun. “I am really looking forward to it.”
It is unclear what role, if any, Ford will play in the Oscar telecast.
Quote:
Earlier, Kimmel coined the phrase “Rob Fording” to describe a person trying to push through a crowd of reporters. He then tried it himself and said the experience was “kind of scary.”

Kimmel has called Ford “the best at what he does,” what he does specifically being “pulling nuggets out of his bag of crazy.”
Quote:
On Friday night, Ford became immortalized in a different way, appearing as a float in the annual Mardi Gras parade.

The larger-than-life replica of Ford smoking a crack pipe was featured front and centre in a Mardi Gras parade float sending up headline-grabbing Canadian celebrities.
The “Canadian Club” float ribbed Ford for his admitted drug use, and sported mockup Toronto Star headlines blaring “Mayor Ford: ‘So I smoked a little crack”’ and “I was in a drunken stupor.”

Painted on the side of the float were caricatures of Justin Bieber — who faces drug use allegations in Florida — clutching a smoky bong and former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson holding a sign reading “Remember me?”
