With his weekly radio program surprisingly halted and his television show nixed after one episode, Rob Ford is to launch his latest effort on Monday at getting his message out with a new show on YouTube.
The scandal-soaked Toronto mayor will be joined by his brother Coun. Doug Ford in hosting the online “Ford Nation” series, sharing the name of his ill-fated TV broadcast.
The show comes months after a weekly radio talk show hosted by the Ford brothers was ended on what Toronto radio station NewsTalk 1010 called mutual agreement.

On the political front: Alberta’s premier apologized Monday for the $45,000 it cost to go to Nelson Mandela’s funeral in South Africa, but said she is not willing to repay the money.
Alison Redford says the amount caught her off guard, but the trip still falls under taxpayer-funded government business. “It certainly has come to my attention that there were some decisions made that week without the full and complete information that we could have had, which didn’t even follow our normal procedure in terms of trip planning,” Redford said after a school funding announcement in Calgary.Read more: http://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/alberta-premier-apologizes-for-cost-of-mandela-trip-but-won-t-repay-45k-1.1679354#ixzz2swscHK8I

A family in England saved £5000 (over $8,000) in real estate fees after their eight-year-old daughter and six-year-old son sold their house. Dave and Liene Penny were surprised earlier this year when they found and purchased their dream house, but there was still one problem: they were worried about selling their old house. After being informed of the move, their kids — Ella and Tomass — took action, picking up their markers, making over 40 fliers, and a cardboard postbox outside where potential buyers could leave their information. Just six days later, the industrious kids had two offers for the full asking price of £250,000 (over $408,000)!
