"Much of Rob Ford's mayoralty and political life was summed up in his ""Cut the Waist"" challenge outside his city hall office, writes Edward Keenan: ""the sideshow atmosphere, the family psychodrama, the love-hate relationship with the press, the constantly conflicted relationship with his fellow councilors in which he relished the role of the underdog when he could not play the bully. And you had his personal struggles intimately intertwined and overshadowing the official business of the city — his personal struggles becoming the official business of the city."""
