Episode description

Robyn Doolittle is the author of Crazy Town--a new book chronicling the absurd political messiness that the city of Toronto has endured at the hands of their crack smoking mayor: Rob Ford. As one of three journalists to have seen the infamous crack video, Robyn has covered the Rob Ford story extensively for the Toronto Star; so we had our VICE Canada Managing Editor Patrick McGuire sit down with her to review the past few years of Toronto politics. From Rob's nearly constant gaffes and presumably drug-addled soundbites, to whether or not he can win the 2014 election, to Canada's restrictive freedom of information laws... it's a comprehensive chat.
