Listen to the Rob Ford tape recording

'I'll fucking try to find it,' says Toronto mayoral candidate Rob Ford

A dispute between mayoral hopeful Rob Ford and former supporter Dieter Doneit-Henderson turned ugly this week. Doneit-Henderson has said that Ford failed to find him a family doctor — as Ford promised to do during his gay-apology puff piece in the Toronto Star — and instead offered to get him street drugs.

The conversation, which Doneit-Henderson recorded, was obtained by Xtra.
