Candidate for Mayor of Toronto Rob Ford boasted that he has connections in the federal government. He claims that this makes it easier for him to get pork from the Federal government than it is for the other candidates. Of course he didn’t call it pork but that’s what he is talking about. If you want more federal funding, Rob Ford is your man.
I find this very disappointing. Mr. Ford is supposed to be the fiscal conservative of the race. Bragging that you can get more federal funding than any other possible mayor does not strike me as something a fiscal conservative would do. He, and the other candidates, should be focused on how Toronto can take responsibility for its finances. Not talking about ways of get tax dollars from elsewhere.

Yeah but let's face it, the people of Toronto will never elect a fiscal conservative that runs on fiscal conservativism.
I don't think Ottawa has a problem helping Toronto if somebody like Ford is mayor. Ottawa is not interested in helping a mayor like Miller. (real conservative)
