End of an Error


Former Toronto Mayor, Rob Ford, died a few days ago.

As is often the case, the death was marked by editorials contending that he was misunderstood, improperly maligned, "flawed", of the common man..... and so on.  Sure.  Right.



I felt Rob Ford was a hot air buffoon and an embarrassment to Toronto and Canada.  Trump Lite, if you like.



Apparently I am not alone in my opinions on this matter:

From the Torontoist: "An Honest Assessment of Rob Ford's Legacy".

From TVO: "The Rob Ford Legacy that Many Refuse to Confront".

From Rabble.ca: "On the Death of Rob Ford and the mourning of Abusive Men".
