Mayor Rob Ford is a cartoon character — literally!

The fine folks at No Ford Nation — the people who created the hilarious election posters that I wrote about earlier today — also created The Toronto Mayor Show, a series of cartoons showing some of Mayor Ford’s antics, complete with actual audio from the events. They’ve capitalized on Rob Ford’s cartoonish Peter Griffin-esque nature and used the medium well (there’s a great visual joke in the episode where Rob gets all rasta and speaks Jamaican patois). Watch ’em all, cringe a little, and think twice when you vote: do you still want a cartoon character for a mayor?

Episode 1: “Crack”

Episode 2: “Enough to Eat”

Be warned: this one’s got dirty words…uttered by the Mayor himself!

Episode 3: “Night Out”
