Afterr five months of denying his drug abuse scandal, Toronto Mayor Rob Ford finally admits to smoking crack in a video that was leaked earlier this year. “Yes, I have smoked crack cocaine,” Ford states to the press in a media conference in November, “I’ve made mistakes.. all I can do is apologize and move on.” However, the Mayor’s behaviour has been inconsistent with what he is telling to the public. Earlier this week, Ford apologized for several incidents where he got “hammered” in public while he was mayor, promising to “curb” his drinking. During the summer, he told reporters he had smoked “a lot” of marijuana, but did not go into details. I was genuinely stunned by Ford’s reluctance to resign or step down, as he has failed to take responsibility of his actions and properly represent the city of Toronto. In my opinion, this is an ethics issue and may cause internal conflict and ruckus within the community.Rob Ford: “Yes, I have smoked crack cocaine”
