jsburbidgeAccording to this CBC report, Ford not only called 911 twice when confronted with This Hour Has 22 Minutes' Marg, Warrior Princess (evincing cluelessness not only in his reaction, but ignorance of the difference between calling police and calling a number set aside for genuine emergencies) but verbally abused the dispatchers: "Sources say Ford turned on the dispatcher, yelling: 'You … bitches!
