Toronto Mayor Ford admits crack cocaine use
http://www.cnn.com/2013/11/05/world/americas/canada-toronto-mayor-crack/index.html(CNN) -- After repeated denials and months of allegations, embattled Toronto Mayor Rob Ford told reporters Tuesday that he smoked crack cocaine.
"Yes, I have smoked crack cocaine. ... Am I an addict? No," Ford said.
Pressure on Ford, 44, increased on Thursday, when Toronto's police chief announced investigators recovered a video of the mayor that purportedly shows him smoking a crack pipe.
That followed allegations that surfaced in two media outlets in May that Ford was recorded on video last winter using crack cocaine.
