Canada is balls-deep in stupid mayors the last several years. Winnipeg's Sam Katz has been corrupt since the moment he tried tying city property and his baseball team to manipulate the city to his benefit and then continue helping his baseball team as Mayor. He keeps getting re-elected because Winnipeg is a selfish, predominantly dumb redneck town like any other city west of the Manitoba/Ontario border.
Here's an article on how the Mayor of Montreal and Laval (Laval is basically a suburb of Montreal) were both found with their hands in the cookie jar with mafia construction companies and are falling on their faces:
I suppose Rob Ford has the advantage of just being completely ignorant and incompetent. Say what you will about him, at least he isn't a crook, unlike many other Canadian mayors in the news of late.

Well...today you're correct about him. But I have no doubt if he had more time and became more entrenched he'd be one of the crookederiststs. The dumb ones are always the most ostentasously crooked. That's why prisons are full of dumb people.
Angry at Parker’s admonishments for him to sit down and stop yelling when it wasn’t his turn to speak, the mayor’s brother, Councillor Doug Ford, yelled at Parker: “Why don’t you shut up and sit down?”
What a bunch of five year olds. Fuckin hell. "waahh! Waahhh! Waahh!"
Toronto's mayor Eric Cartman smokes crack? Not surprising since his own mom made it onto the cover of CrackWhore Montly and is prominently featured in several online scheiße films.
Video material of a mayor smoking crack is damning stuff indeed but the dude is expecting a 6 figure sum?
Seems preposterously high... what has he been smoking?
