QUOTED: Doug Ford ignores Nick Kouvalis’s advice and bad-mouths more councillors

—Doug Ford on TTC chair Karen Stintz and conservative councillor Peter Milczyn, two erstwhile Ford allies who have distanced themselves from the mayor in recent days. Doug let loose on the pair on the same day that the Globe and Mail suggested his big mouth is a political liability to his brother Rob. Looks like neither the story nor Nick Kouvalis’s blunt advice has helped Doug learn that crucial lesson of politics: people you publicly insult will be less likely to support you. [Globe and Mail]
