sabotabbyRob Ford is mayor starting today, and is already the worst mayor ever.
Transit City would have saved me hours of commuting a week. It would have given my kids better access to jobs and education. It would have made them less socially, culturally, and economically isolated from the downtown core.
The subway will not get built. Rob Ford's transit plan is about as realistic as if he'd just offered to buy everyone a pony.
I wish, oh, I wish, that there was one honest cop left in Toronto who could arrest this wife-beating, drug-addled son-of-a-bitch on one of his drunken joyrides. I wish his driver's license would be permanently suspended, dooming him to a lifetime of taking public transit with us plebes.
Die in all the fires, Mayor Ford.
Fuck.

That is the opposite of responsibility, and it's so disheartening. :(
(Also, zeppelins!)
