I hate to bring race into this but...This defense of Rob Ford has gotta go. Remember Marion Barry?

its canada breh :heh: @His_Excellence_Reincar is the only black dude up there

it's not white privilege up there, it's a canadian legal thing.
But now he has admitted his crack and alcohol use, the situation changes. Drug and alcohol addictions must be accommodated and employees cannot be fired for their consequences. Indeed, doing so would not only be a wrongful dismissal but a violation of the Human Rights Code.

To date, Ford insists he uses alcohol only periodically and crack only once. That is not the behaviour of an addict and, if he sticks to that story, he can still be fired for cause. But since denial is a symptom of addiction, the questioning must be rigorous. If he ultimately admits to an addiction (and some employees falsely do to save their jobs), the employer cannot fire him with impunity but must “accommodate” his disability, requiring him to attend rehabilitation and then firing him only if he refuses to attend, does not complete the program or does not comply with its terms following release.

:guwop:

i live in the wrong country :wow:
It makes sense though. An addiction is a legitimate disease, Canada wants to help these people, not get them fired from their jobs where they have to either get unemployment or steal/do other things to get money to fuel their addiction. Here in the U.S. we drug test before you get the job in which typically the drug test will only pick up THC because THC is the only illegal drug that binds to human fat cells which allows it to be stored for 30+ days after initial use. Things like cocaine, crack, meth etc only stay in your system a couple days so it's easy to get clean for a drug test. From what I understand, they typically only drug test in Canada for jobs that involve driving and stuff like that.

Ever since he said he didn't eat that woman's puzzy on live tv, I've been cracking up nonstop.
Pardon the pun.
