Document Summary
Article: rob ford (head politician, mayor of toronto, a charismatic leader) He was seen in a videotape taking drugs and associating with drug leaders. He denied that he had done anything wrong (said that the video doesn"t exist) As part of investigation, found a computer (in a deleted file) the video is consistent with the report. Rob ford cannot denied anymore and addressed that he smoked cracked cocaine and also an alcoholic. Another video released ( he was ranting while he was intoxicated) What happened to him also happens to many (but this is more public) A lot of people are calling for him to resign. Rob ford is representative of toronto, what he does reflects the people in toronto. We have a systemic problem in politics, because what it takes to get elected is not what it takes to be a leader.
