February 6 is a birthday for several famous historical figures. Babe Ruth, Ronald Reagan and Bob Marley. Toronto Mayor and noted reggae enthusiast, Rob Ford has declared February 6 as “Bob Marley Day” in Toronto. Why the hell not?
Mayor Ford declared the proclamation of Bob Marley Day with, “We honor the legacy of Robert (Bob) Nesta Marley, an influential musician, advocate for human rights and international ambassador of peace.”

What do I love? I love happy hour, a good golf tan, and getting moderately drunk during dinner.

This man is a walking power move
I would love nothing more than to sit down and have a beer or 10 with this guy.
Looks like they were in Q1 budget meeting and Rob Ford stood up and said “IT’S BOB MARLEY DAY!” and started dancing to music that magically appeared. Then he started giving dap to all the black guys in the room.
Because he’s the mayor Toronto deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So they’ll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he’s not their mayor. He’s a silent guardian. A watchful protector. Rob Ford.
Meanwhile in Canada…
His dance moved are unrivaled.
Every time I see a new post about him I think it’s an Onion article and then I realize it isn’t
