There’s a foolish man named John Cook at Gawker, the scandal outlet. He’s on radio and TV here in Toronto just about bursting with excitement at the thought of being able to buy the video made by cocaine traffickers so “we can all see Rob Ford smoking crack.” He wants us all to send him some money for the creepy cocaine movie makers. Yes, he knows the price is high at $200,000, but what fun to have that video to drool over. Oh yes, and air it for his audience all over the world too. Well gee, Mr Cook, thanks so very much but no thanks. You may not make the people of Toronto as upset and sad as the mayor, but you are doing a good job. Airing this video will help the people of Toronto not one bit. There is already a picture in the public domain. The mayor, unfortunately for us, has failed to tackle the allegation head on. Unless he does so, we may take it that he did what he is said to have done. Mr. Cook knows very well there’s no civic value in airing the tape. We wonder if he’s heard of Sharlene Bosma. Maybe Mr. Cook would care to collect some money for the trust account at the TD Bank in the name for Tim Bosma’s widow and her two year old daughter. That’s where our money will be going.
