Toronto produces some stupid politicians

Toronto, 2013.03.27

Today wasn't a day of big accomplishments for Toronto-area politicians. On the federal level, we have this accomplishment: being the only country to pull out (and sneakily at that) of a UN treaty on combating desertification. Meanwhile, the mayor has another proud moment: the school where he insists on coaching the football team is meeting to decide if they want a drunk with a police record, who says insulting things about the school to remain in charge of the team. Unsurprisingly.
