Former Toronto Mayor 'Rob Ford' is dead

Rob Ford, the former mayor of Toronto who gained international popularity after he admitted smoking crack while in office, died on Tuesday after an 18-month battle with cancer. He was 46. 

“With heavy hearts and profound sadness, the Ford family announces the passing of their beloved son, brother, husband and father,” his family said in a statement. “A dedicated man of the people, Councillor Ford spent his life serving the citizens of Toronto.”

May his soul rest in peace.
