I don’t know if Mayor Fred Eisenberger ever smoked pot. If he did, he wouldn’t feel out of place at the post-election party of candidates vying for the mayor’s job in the municipal election later this year.
Of the four candidates who have declared an intention to run for the city’s top elected job, two are marijuana activists – Michael Baldasaro and .

Maybe Fred did smoke pot when he was a much younger man, but didn’t inhale? If I were mayor of this city, I’d be smoking weed every day. A good stoner may be exactly what this city needs.

Baldasaro has run for the mayor’s job before. Leader of the Church of the Universe, he also ran for Parliament in 1984, 2000 and 2004.

Aside from his degree in “weedology,” Haines is listed as director of 420 Graphics.

Also mulling another kick at the can is former mayor Larry Di Ianni. I spoke to Larry back in late 2009 and he told me that he would never run for politics again.

I think it would be great to have DiIanni in the race. I wonder if he smokes dope?

I find it hard to believe anyone who tells me they will “never” do something again. Take it from a guy who has failed a thousand times to stick to a “never” promise.

I should mention that Mahesh Butani has also tossed his name into the race for mayor. He is described as a teacher and architect by training. Not much else to tell you.

Why don’t these people try and run for council before they go straight for the top job?

I don’t mean to make light of those who seek to serve in public office. I’ve always said if you’ve got it, roll (with) it.

A number of names are popping up as candidates in various wards, and I expect this fall’s election will be one of the most exciting in recent memory. There is a lot at stake, and it’s important that we take every candidacy seriously.

Personally, I’d like to see the new mayor bring forth a puff-puff-pass bylaw. It might actually help our council get on the same page for a change. Right now, too many people are hogging the joint.

Court still prohibits marijuana possession

Court still prohibits marijuana possession Shannon Kari, National Post Published: Thursday, December 11, 2008 The prohibition against simple possession of marijuana has been upheld by an Ontario Superior Court judge, in a closely watched case that stemmed from the prosecution of Clifford Long, who was arrested by Toronto police with $40 worth of cannabis. Justice Eva Frank overturned a decision by a lower court judge last year that found there was no valid restriction against possession of cannabis because of flaws with the country's medical marijuana regulations. The lower court decision led to confusion about prosecuting simple possession cases in Ontario, said the federal government in its arguments before Judge Frank earlier this year. The federal Crown argued that the present policies of Health Canada have resulted in enough marijuana for the nearly 2,000 people with medical certificates to possess the drug. Judge Frank agreed with the arguments made by federal government lawy...

LIVE IN THE NOW. FOR NOW

  “ Look up into the Universe and show your perception of your God that you are grateful and humbled for this gift of existence, of life it very self. “ Remember, we are merely mortal and our existence is an ever changing blueprint of the pathway we choose to walk at this moment of our lives. We will face many choices and we walk many pathways   as we wander through this road we call “ life “. “ We are genetically spiritually nomadic. “ Forever seeking the “ why “, “ where ” and “when”, often neglecting the “ here “, “ now ” and “ why not “ The past has left us. The future is yet to arrive. In reality, we live right now. Enjoy the  “now”. Think fondly about the past. Have positive hope for tomorrow. And ……….. “ LIVE ” in the now Before it fades I nto the past. (LDV 06/29/2025) “Positivity is Cancer’s nemesis.”

  Musk is dangerous and is definitely a “ wolf in sheep’s clothing “. Elon “ Teslaboy ” Musk His warped intelligence and well known use of ketamine has enabled him to turn his greatest fan,  Donald J. Trump , into his personal political puppet. Trump believes that he is controlling Musk. However it is quite the contrary! DICTATOR DONALD  TRUMP Trump is blinded by Musk’s wealth. He believes that by befriending him he will reach the same level of riches. I strongly doubt that will ever be a reality. Yes, Trump is often referred to as a “ brilliant ” businessman. But is he really? Trump’s riches come from a very long list of bankruptcies and shifty business transactions. He is well known for simply refusing to pay his debts. He also owes numerous Russian Oligarchs billions of dollars for failed Trump Tower projects. Including the shady Moscow Towers project and the Trump Towers Toronto. The latter which was bankrupt before completion. Which lead to Trump obtaining financing ...
