C'mon, where are the howling lefties, this is way more serious that Rob Ford talking on his phone. I want to hear Vaughan screeming for her to be booted from office. I want to see the red Star bashing her like they do Ford.

Is she a lefty, I don't know. I have not seen her in the news before either. I also have seen more heat on the mayor for being a dolt in his position being mayor, which is supposed to be the responsible role model others should follow.. now if we could find a responsible role model to vote for ...

I agree, where are all the Ford Bashers now especially Adam Vaughan! Please Toby, don't even try dermoralizing Ford because of this person's actions. I don't hear Vaughan calling for her resignation with great indignancy. She was arrested for impaired driving, now she can drop her Holier than Thou act.

Adam Vaughan and his leftists buddies silence is deafening. Why isn't he calling for a ban on cars? If cars are banned then you can't be charged with impaired driving.

I want to see our tax dollars at work!

Months ago, we had a mayor by the name of Mel Lastman, his official wife went to The Bay and decided to steal a knicker for herself. Police was called and she was arrested. Although she was arrested with the stolen nicker she was not charged. The nicker was returned to The Bay and she went home. Do you know of a wife of a poor Canadian, a black man or a Native in this society that can walk to The Bay and steal knickers for herself, Police get called in and charges are not laid, the nicker returned to The Bay and she walks home?

Yes I have read your writing and it is very interesting for as Barb very clearly illustrated, you have never lived into a skin of an immigrant in this society to know what we go through. So I do not event think that you are in position to stand up and make judgments. I am surprised that you claim that MS Mel Lastman had mental issues, for those of us that follow issues in this city closely know that people with mental issues just get shot by Police and die and for real. We are at a level where Doctors have clearly stated that they are not willing to call Police if a mentally affected person causes a problem because Police is only going to shoot him dead. Now if you claim that she had a mental issue and she survived Toronto Police, it becomes very interesting. And just on record, for I know you’re going to come back to me with so and so was standing on a street with scissor so the Police Officer’s life was in danger and he had to be decapitated. Let me inform you that a prisoner escaped from jail and got a gun, he broke into a house on Avenue Rd and Eglinton, and Police showed up and arrest him with his gun. Why can they do that? For they are trained to. When you look closely at all Police killings in this city they have not killed anyone with a gun but they have all been arrested, they only kill those with a hummer a knife a pair of scissor, one wonders why.

But let me go to the issue of our irks fan racism. No we actually do not fan it but we raise issues that affect us as immigrants/Canadians in this country. This woman drove drunk and I stand that she is not going to be treated as any other Canadian due to her stature and money. And that message keeps on going out only that as you see society fighting school bullying today, we also get bullies as Barb who stands up and ask a simple question, why don’t you leave Canada and go back where ever crap you came from? I have lived in this country way more years than I lived in my country, but to today to Barb I’m not a Canadian enough and if I see something wrong I should take Air Canada out. And it is not only Barb but a big Canadian society believes in her racist. I flew into Pearson and a kid, an immigration officer, I call her a kid for she was younger than my first born and I would easily have been a father to this kid, but she asked me a simple question “So how did you get a Canadian Passport?” Of course she would not ask that question to Barb for she is white. And I honestly responded to her, I told her that I went to a building with words Immigration and citizenship passport office put in a couple of forms and photographs and got it. What did you want me respond to a stupid question? I love this country, but I think it is my job as a Canadian to build it to a better country and complaining about something wrong is a way to change it, can you imagine if Barb flew into this country God knows from Ukraine or Northern Island and every complaint she made the Natives told her to pack and leave? This country would not be what it is today. And what the Barbs forget is that very and very shortly this game is going to be over for we will beat them by numbers and they will become minority in this country. Then what will you do?

So when she goes on with this country is fair to everyone, I refuse that nonsense, and here is a very good example for I love to go after a point with an example. I want you to go to Sherburne street, drive from Charles street and south. Look at how silly that street has been done in making a path for bikers, it is ugly it is dangerous and it has a hump on each side of the street. Let me put it this way to you sir, Sherburne street is the only street in the entire city of Toronto that has a hump on both sides. And why did they do it that way? For Sherburne street is a street of poor people and no one can stand up to complain. Remember what Mike Harris did, he again started with Wellesley Hospital and he shut it down for the users are poor and not mater. Now city politics changes by radio talk shows going after bad things done by the city. Do you think Jerry Agar can comment on Sherburne street? No for no one living on it that really matters in the bigger picture. They are poor and in TCHC and we can experiment with them. If they constructed your street as they have done Sherburne street you would have been up and in arms. Now you have a city lead by the conservatives, radio stations controlled by the conservatives, Federal government controlled by the conservatives, and on the silliness the Liberals have played the province controlled by Hudack. So everything is conservatives, go figure the people’s fate.

And yet we cannot even raise this issue for Barb a more God created Canadian than all of us stands up and demands that we leave for now she is a more Canadian than the rest of us. The single reason most of American immigrants use this country to come to North America, is because American racism is open and straight, the one of Canada is so hidden that the Barbs of today claim how society is treated equal, but when you go to apply for a job she has, she looks in your eyes and with that very plastic smile goes “ Oh I have read your resume and it is very impressive, but I cannot give you this job for you are way over qualified for it” Toronto today has the most educated taxi drivers in the entire world, brain surgeons driving cabs in agony, what does that tell you? You rather stand up and tell me that I am black or Indian and you do not need me, for this is why our kids have ended up in crime for society believes we are the problem so it does not matter what I do I am a criminal anyways.

It is strange that you do not read what I write but you respond !!!!!!!!
