Toronto Mayor Rob Ford? I voted for him and I'd do it again | Public Radio International
Toronto Mayor Rob Ford? I voted for him and I'd do it again | Public Radio International: Like many Etobicoke residents, Venafro has met the mayor. When Ford was a city councillor, he visited Venafro’s street to try to resolve a neighbor's dispute. As a councillor, Ford was known for personally returning constituent calls about everyday issues, like backed up city sewers, a neighbor’s fence that was too high and problems with garbage pick-up. Once he became mayor, he continued the practice, sometimes returning calls late into the night.
