Toronto: Tea Party mayor on the rocks

[Gerrard]

Re: teaparty - Canada was actually at the forefront of this sort of movement in the 90s

it was just called the Reform Party.

People assume Canadians are taking their cues from an American movement but in reality it's just addled memories and media saturation.

either way they're just branch arms of elitists masquerading as populists.

As for Ford, I'm actually surprised how fast the tide turned against him. He and his handlers really misjudged his popularity and the reasons for his election -namely poor alternative candidates. Miller would have won again had he run.
