Tax Payer Parasite Publisher House Of Anansi Joins Gawker To Fund Purchase Of Alleged Ford Crack Video From Drug Dealers
Is it right that a publisher on the public t i t like House of Anansi fund a politically partisan act?
"We acknowledge for their financial support of our publishing program the Canada Council for the Arts, the Ontario Arts Council, the Ontario Media Development Corporation, and the Government of Canada through the Canada Book Fund."
Ugh I think the world's most grimly dull author - Maggie Atwood is in their stable.
"House of Anansi and its sister company, Groundwood Books, receives almost $1,000,000 in grants each year. They come from a variety of sources and different levels of government; for instance, this year the Ontario Arts Council distributed $44,005 to Anansi and $48,385 to Groundwood; each company received $100,000 from the Ontario Media Development Corporation; and grants from the Canada Council for the Arts ranged from $6,100 to fund author tours to $41,700 support various translation projects."

What if somebody lends Edsel the money to buy the flim for His Enormities comforts going forward?
D'oh! What's the world coming to when you can't trust a drug dealer.

Well, whoever is responsible, one thing's been accomplished: Toronto is International Laughingstock of the Week. All the US comedy shows are playing the video montage of Fordian slips. The fathead in the crack pic - if he's a ringer is a very good one - looks an awful lot like like the guy walking into a camera and falling over with a football. Come to think of it, have we ever seen him sober?
Walter:
Teh Mayor of Toronto is sick & needs rehab. He just FIRED his chief of staff - for telling him to 'get healthy'
Ohhh- goodness. I feel you don't have a good idea of what is going on here....
Well geez, I'd rip a strip off anyone who gave me such a stupid admonishment too. Telling someone Ford's size that they need to 'get healthy' is asinine. It's not like Ford is unaware of how he looks, or what state his health is in. It's frigging ridiculous to think that he needs to be told.
I am amazed that people are stupid enough to donate money to a drug dealer to see a video. If you are going to commit money online, there are plenty of charities more worthy. Of course, you don't actually need a video to do damage ...
And to make the haters madder:..
Mayor Rob Ford broke his silence Friday, says he does not use crack and is not a crack addict.
“I cannot comment on a video that I have never seen, or that does not exist. It is most unfortunate, very unfortunate, that my colleagues and the great people of this city have been exposed to the fact that I have been judged by the media without evidence,” he said.

Toronto's a great place; many thousands come to visit each year. Low-information people, such as yourself, should just stay away and it'll be an even better place.
Yeah - just don't come during economic summits, if you value your dog, your prosthetic, or or your civil liberties.
