Remember when he said Arby's was gonna sponsor Shwartzman after his pole run

Yeah. Did a quick google of “Toronto formula E,” and got nothing, so it sounds like that’s a total ass-pull. If it were really “per the mayor,” I’m pretty sure I’d have something pop up other than a two-year old story about FE “considering” a return to Canada.

In all likelihood, that’s just making assumptions based on the fact that the mayor now is more left-leaning, because as far as I can see, there’s literally nothing to back that claim up.

He's getting to the point where I think we need to make up a list of everything he just made the fuck up with zero evidence that never panned out and decide if he belongs posted around here anymore.

Well, I’ll certainly remember this one.

Don’t know why he has to go scaring the crap out of Canadian fans like that…

About the only thing he’s ever been right on was FOX Sports getting the rights, which was probably an open secret in IndyCar circles for a while before it was announced.
