Via email, from a resident of Toronto;

I want to make it clear that I am neither for or against Mr. Sears. I am undecided. I am morbidly intrigued by his campaign. It’s both grotesque and alluring, like a Pekingese dog.
Every month I am fortunate to receive a free copy of “Ward 32 News” at my doorstep, or as most of my neighbours have nicknamed it, “Crackpot News”. This month’s edition is online here …
Here’s the interesting part–the paper has endorsed “James Sears” for Ward 32 Councillor in the upcoming October 27th municipal election. He supports the Rob Ford austerity agenda. Rob Ford is also running to save his seat as Mayor.
James Sears is AKA “Dimitri The Lover”, a notorious seduction guru that considers himself an anti-Metrosexual, anti-FemiMarxist. His opponent is incumbent “Mary-Margaret McMahon”, who rides a bicycle and believes in global warming and yoga. They are polar opposites. Mr. Sears has built an extremely offensive anti-Marxist web site in which he’s put an animation which allows visitors to “Spank Mary” with the assistance of the “Anti-Marxist hero” of their choice … Putin, Hitler, or Rob Ford … www.JamesSearsWard32.com.
Mr. Sears has advertised on the back cover of Ward 32 News for several months. His election site has incorporated the back covers of Ward 32 News throughout it. Click on August’s back cover which shows Mary-Margaret being exorcised by Mr. Sears or July’s back cover which shows Jewish developers running from Mr. Sears in fear of being impaled by spears. He’s even incorporated a quote from Mary-Margaret at the top of the web site which was taken totally out of context from an interview she gave, making it appear that she’s is afraid to face him in a debate for fear of losing (she basically stated that she was FRIGHTENED of being near him as opposed to feeling INSECURE about her abilities to debate him).
The normally quiet, non-adversarial Ward 32 citizenry has been ripped into 3 distinct camps … those Marxists & frightened soccer moms who think James Sears must be stopped at all costs; those Libertarians and elderly folk who think he’s the second coming of Christ; and the rest of us who think he’s nuts and worth entertainment value, and MAYBE a vote to send a message to the establishment. I haven’t seen this much excitement ever, in all my life in Toronto. Never. And the mainstream media is totally avoiding the story.
Anyway, I thought you guys would be interested!

And I am! From his website;

I have lived in Ward 32 for over a decade. I had been planning on entering politics when I turned 60, but a certain incident rapidly accelerated that timeframe. After Rob Ford said the word “pussy”, I witnessed Councillor Mary-Margaret McMahon either feign or actually experience a live on-air nervous breakdown. At that moment I felt that I had a duty to displace this weak, ineffectual, spineless bag of nerves.

Why not. He’ll fit right in.
