That was fast. Though he's hardly said a word since replacing his brother as a candidate for mayor, Doug Ford's campaign has already got a parody website. The site popped up a few days ago and is getting steadily more popular. The slogan? "Elect Doug Ford: The Less Likeable One." Oh boy.
The site is as bare bones as it gets, featuring choice quotations from the elder Ford's time as a city councillor. But there really are some gems in the collection. Take, for instance, Ford's views on racism: "You can be racist against people who have a drinking problem. You can be racist against people that eat little red apples." Or what about his plans for the Port Lands? "The Ferris wheel is just a cash cow." And don't forget his solemn statement that the day his brother was stripped of his mayoral powers that it was "the worst day in Canadian history for democracy."
Check out the site for more DoFo-isms.
