Olivia Chow links John Tory to Rob Ford

Chow, the former NDP MP who began her campaign Wednesday, suggested on Sunday that she will attempt to depict Tory as Ford-lite.

“Hear this, John Tory: there is no such thing as a kinder, gentler version of failure,” she said.

Gee, I wonder if the Sun has a partisan agenda? Lol

Well at least they're presenting polls, even when the candidate they like isn't the fore runner.

:lol: you wanna fact-check Levy, pay your money and take your chances buckaroo.

 

[mentalfloss]

In that lie detector article, it isn't surprising that Ford is the least credible.

Stintz should really play nice and Chow's lies are pretty benign.

 

[Locutus]

Well it is the star after all and I don't think they have any agenda either. ;-)

Fact check nothing.

All she did was take vague slogans from Chow's campaign and contrast them with cherry picked situations from her past.

All these guys from the Sun are a joke because no one except their viewers really take them seriously.

You wouldn't take Sun News seriously if they told you sunrises in the east....
Not a biased bone in your body....none.....

For me the big factor I see is that anybody would do a better job than Ford.

I'm not even going to focus on the drug issues Ford has, even though that is another big factor..... The thing is, the only time I hear about Ford is when he goes on talk shows, or goes to see a sporting event, or flies off to the US to have interviews about his drug problems, or having a photo op here or a photo op there, smiling for cameras, sucking in his media popularity while it lasts...... Traveling here and there, hoping on another interview or tv show, etc etc....

I don't even remember the last time I heard anything relating towards him doing his damn job..... Which last I checked was being the Mayor of a large city, not some circus side show.

Didn't the city council strip him of virtually all power?

Can anyone really take the Sun seriously?

They do way more to damage their own credibility than strengthen it.

Toronto Star actually strengthened their case after the Rob Ford video.

Globe and Mail is pretty fair and CBC has a good reputation.

I take issue with a lot of National Post op eds because they are just ideological nonsense.

That is way too funny

That is way too funny

But he's not above quoting a Sun Newspaper when they post an article that he agrees with....
What is that called again?.......hypocrisy ??

Why would I need to boycott a publication to justify my criticism?

I'm sure Levant and Stein would resent such an oppressive sentiment.

It's not surprising really.

Some people; read: the usual suspects, shop for the 'facts' that support their opinion and disregard everything else often at the expense of reality
