Several councillors aren’t impressed with Toronto Mayor Rob Ford’s decision to remain seated during a standing ovation for WorldPride organizers at city hall earlier today.

Coun. Mike Layton tweeted that Ford’s behaviour was “disgraceful.”
Watching that video reminded me of something:

Toronto’s liberal elite gets a well deserved poke in the eye and the left – reeling in blinkered denial – wails and gnashes its teeth: lovely.
“Anger trumps hope,” says NDP MP Olivia Chow. Chow says she hopes Ford reaches out to progressives on council to achieve consensus on issues.
NDP MPP Rosario Marchese says the economy drove people to seek change. “I think people are financially stressed. When you find yourself pinched, you want to take it out on somebody.”
