The idea that Doug Ford run in place of his brother is a just plain dumb idea. Rarely agree with Mamolliti but it is far better that Deputy Mayor Holyday be appointed interim Mayor to complete the term and the City get some relief from both another election and the Ford brother sideshow. Question; If there is a by-election does the winner get a full 4 year term or only get to end this term in 2014 in which case we end up with two elections in two years that will be incredibly unproductive?
