TORONTO, Feb. 7 (UPI) -- Toronto Mayor Rob Ford and his brother, city councilor Doug Ford, will be launching a YouTube series called "Ford Nation."
A news release from Ford's office says viewers will be able to hear from them "directly and unfiltered." The news release also encourages everyone to subscribe to their new YouTube channel.
Despite pressure to step down since a string of scandals and headlines regarding substance abuse and erratic behavior, Ford is seeking reelection for another term, saying in a press conference, "There are some councilors who claim that my personal life is somehow impacting their work. Folks, that is absolute nonsense."
In their introduction video on their YouTube channel, Ford asks people to "please judge me on my record, not my personal life."
