The 2014 Toronto Mayoral Election is set to take place on October 27, 2014, and there are a group of people dead set against the re-election of a certain crack-smoking candidate; they hope to make a big difference with their No Ford Nation Campaign Signs. Rob Ford has made quite the global impact over the last few months. Yet he has put the beloved city of Toronto on the map for reasons most residents would like to forget.
The No Ford Nation Campaign Signs helps people voice their concerns in as attention-grabbing a way as his own shenanigans. They center around fake candidates that bring to light Ford's ridiculous reign thus far. For instance, one reads, "Elect Jeff McElroy. He promises to just smoke pot as Mayor. Not crack."
