I began to wonder whether it was possible to harness the reputation of our mayor to benefit the city I love.
Pisa, after all, has built a tourist industry around an inelegant, shoddily built tower. Here in Toronto, we have Mayor Rob Ford and his brother, Councillor Doug Ford: This is a bit like having a tower tilting toward earth at a full 35-degree angle, from which one can conveniently watch an endless car accident.
