It's very refreshing to hear the two political rivals respecting each other.

    Toronto has a tradition of this. Rob Ford respected. Layton famously on council. Chow and now Doug Ford do get along quite well (Ford didnt carry much water for Brad bradford which was handy). The only real bad blood was Ford and Tory iirc.

    what? Are you smoking DECO crack?

    July 9, 2014 (Toronto City Council): As a Toronto city councillor, Doug Ford launched a heated, shouting rant at a council meeting targeting Integrity Commissioner Janet Leiper, Councillor Paul Ainslie, and Speaker Frances Nunziata. He accused the council of hypocrisy and political motivation over recommendations regarding his brother, then-Mayor Rob Ford.

    November 30, 2012 (Toronto City Council): Doug Ford engaged in angry shouting matches and verbal clashes with fellow council members (such as Councillor Adam Vaughan) during a tense and chaotic council session.

    Why do you think he's meddling in City of Toronto politics?
