Dear Shae Alosius Montgomery Greenfield

Hmmm, just when you thought you'd escaped wacky left coast politics, your illustrious mayor has allegedly switched from racing through parking lots writing Haikus with fridge magnets on parked cars to cavorting with Somali drug lords in crack dens. As your deputy mayor has sagely pointed out "drug dealers can not be trusted". (We might not have known this otherwise!) Meantime, Rob Ford himself has taken to Twitter and encouraged his subjects to escape to Toronto Island for a picnic this long weekend (presumably so he can be left in peace with his crack pipe). I'd suggest you not follow his example while in Toronto!
