Mayor Ford will not resign. On his radio program on Newstalk 1010 today he said he is sorry for the past and that he apologizes for his mistakes. Mr. Ford said that is going to make changes in his life. He said he wanted to assure citizens that he would do that. He did not however say what those changes might be nor did he acknowledge the specifics of his “mistakes”. Mr. Ford had clearly scripted his remarks and after about 90 seconds or so seemed unclear what else to say. At this point his brother, Doug, said “pass it over to me”. The program, which lasts until 3 p.m., appears to have moved into a familiar pattern of how Mr. Ford will be “taking care of everything.” Mr. Ford said that from now on he will have a full-time driver. He said he will privatize garbage collection across the now unionized east side of Toronto east of Yonge Street, but that he needs another term to do that. This is a promise he has made before with the same condition — re-election in 2014. Lorrie Goldstein
