Embattled Toronto Mayor Rob Ford was ticketed by the RCMP last night for jaywalking in Burquitlam. According to reports, he’s “shocked” and “embarrassed” by the $109 ticket, which he instinctively (but incorrectly) called “a waste of taxpayer’s money”. Lucky for him our own No. 5 Orange strip club is offering jaywalking ticket validation this week (as evidenced by the sign pictured above), though he probably gets enough jaywalking ticket validation to eat at home…

It’s honestly a little difficult to NOT jaywalk in our Burquitlam-KoreaTown neighbourhood with all of the Evergreen Line disruptions to all of the sidewalks etc. I technically need to jaywalk nearly every day here to get to the grocery store or the Skytrain.
I think they’re nailing out of towners. Evergreen disruption has also been forcing delivery trucks and such to park around in areas where they end up getting a ticket. I’ve witnessed it walking around here. Everything here is just in a state.
