Rob Ford on Bill Blair: 'If he's going to arrest me, arrest me'

An angry Mayor Rob Ford has criticized Toronto police over the funds used to follow him last fall, calling on Chief Bill Blair to "come clean" about the cost of that investigation.

"If he’s going to arrest me, arrest me. I have done nothing wrong and he’s wasted millions of dollars," Ford said Thursday afternoon during a scrum with reporters at Toronto City Hall.

"I want him to come clean and say how much money did it cost the taxpayers for surveillance on me and the planes that he had to rent — that is absolutely game-playing, it’s politics and I am not apologizing."

Ford had first been talking with reporters about the status of city skating rinks, but the talk quickly turned to his testy relationship with the city’s police chief.

Blair did not ask for an apology for Rob Ford calling him a cocksucker in the Steak Queen incident. So Ford can not apologize all he wants, it wasn't even on the table.

Blair will move in and arrest Ford whenever he's damn good and ready.
