Yep! Sucks to be on the left coast I suppose. They'll get a lot less viewers watching the Habs v Jets than the Leafs v Nucks.

Of it was all about Leafs fans then the Oilers and Flames games would be held at 7. The Oilers game started at 9 but because the Flames game was a national game on TSN they started it at 8 in the East. The Leafs draw more viewers than the Nucks deal with it.

To be fair there's enough people here happy to comment on the goings on in the US.

Then why mention it in the first place? The Chief didn't need to say anything. If you're going to acknowledge the video exists then make it public. Even to blur images of anyone else that may be facing charges.

I think it's a good play to demand the release of the video. Put the ball back in the Chief's court. If the video doesn't figure in a criminal proceeding against the mayor then why not release it. Kind of a cop out.

I'm not even close to defending Ford here. His behaviour is clearly contemptible. That video needs to come out. It's way to easy to call the Chiefs motives into question. I remember people on this site doubting what the Chief said in regards to a 911 call where Ford allegedly called someone a Bitch. It goes both ways.

Supporting Ford's politics doesn't mean they defend his train wreck of a personal life. They've come out today saying he should resign. They were also very critical of his week-long silence when this crack video story broke.

Apparently their radio show is scheduled to happen at the Royal Winter Fair on Sunday. Followed by former Chief of Staff Mark Towhey (who CFRB 1010 has recently brought on as an on air personality) who's filling in for someone. That'll be an interesting Sunday of Radio.

Apparently the Sun is doing a second edition today. First time since 9/11.

You could argue Adscam was the start of Paul Martin doing his backstabbing which made Chretien announce he'd quit in 2002.

Might hurt his BFF Sandra Lisi though.

Maybe there's a video

I'm sure many, me included, would welcome it though. The fact that you can only be turfed from the Senate if you get charged with a serious crime is pretty ridiculous.

Well considering the PM appoints all Senators, that's exactly what the Senate is.

Apparently his people only found it deleted on a HD a few days ago.

I like it on the Rocks.

He's set out a new list of tasks he wants to government to achieve before the election. I doubt this will make him give up on that.

That the video was going to be recovered on a HD a few days ago? I got the feel from most people on here that the video was long gone but the circumstantial evidence was overwhelming.

Interesting, I think all polling is pretty much BS but I wonder how a scientific online poll is conducted.

Ipsos-Reid is an online polling company?

And once Duffy and company are turfed from the Senate early next week what's the fuel for the media beyond that?

Rob Ford has changed that for a bit. The Media can't keep both these stories going at the same rate.

I have no horse in this race, so me too. It's very fascinating news.

Well going to press with all these anonymous sources was pretty crummy journalism. None of it could be verified. Until Today!
