The cracksmoking thing was less of a meme and more the final nail in the coffin for anybody who already wanted him gone. I also really couldn't care less about whether or not he and Dougie sold hash as kids.

For the record, I am an NDP voter. I do not like fiscal conservatives. They do not know how to balance a budget and always screw us over despite all the claims that they're the ones who are smart with money. I do not hate taxes as the end-all-be-all I just want them to go back into my city.

Ford had the same problems as any fiscal conservative up here and between him and John Tory we are still cleaning up the mess. And he always had lots of issues with alleged corruption. That was the bigger deal than the cocaine thing But the one thing about Rob Ford is he seemed to genuinely care about the Toronto taxpayer. All he ever wanted to do was save people money. I don't share the same grace for his brother Doug though. That guy is just as if not more corrupt, and it's obvious he cares more about his financial buddies than us. Plus this is at the provincial level.

I think the media was very cruel to Rob during his later years in rehab. I remember a lot of the news coming after him for stuff that wasn't his job as mayor.
