Only a few days ago, a video currently held by the Toronto police was released. The video included Toronto Mayor Rob Ford smoking from a crack pipe. The mayor denied claims against his usage a year ago. This of course was a lie, when it was found of his habit. He has told the press that he had most likely done it in a drunken stupor, however he has said he does not use drugs nor is he an alcoholic. Ford accepted the video and admitted to his usage, but did not linger on the thought. He simply explained that it was a mistake and he couldn't change the facts, for it was in the past. Ford spoke to the people of Toronto, telling them that he would try to regain their trust as much as he could. The Mayor runs for reelection next year, but will have tough time. Many political counselors believe he does not have a shred of credibility left.
