Harper busting out the ringers today. In the front row of his speech in Toronto....Doug and Rob Ford.
Quote:
Former Toronto mayor Rob Ford and his brother, Doug Ford, turned up to support Stephen Harper at the Conservative Leader’s morning campaign stop in Toronto.
Their arrival at a 200-person event was hailed by host Ted Opitz, a local Conservative candidate seeking re-election.
Mr. Opitz welcomed “two great sons of Etobicoke” just before Mr. Harper took the stage to warn Canadians of what he considers the dangers of a Justin Trudeau government.
Doug Ford, a former Toronto city councillor, told media covering the Harper event that his political machine could have mustered 5,000 supporters for a Conservative rally if the campaign wanted it.

The bolded part is great because when he was asked why there isn't 5,000 people here he....switched the subject.
