Former Toronto mayor Rob Ford has died of cancer

Former Toronto Mayor Rob Ford had died this morning of liposarcoma (a cancer of the connective tissue). Rob Ford was known for his interesting take on how one should govern one of North America's largest cities, including admitting illegal drug use and some heavy inebriation.

I still remember being in a meeting in downtown Toronto when he admitted to partaking in some use of heavy drugs when drunk.

Rest in Peace Rob.
