Rob was the Mayor of Toronto. Doug is the premier of Ontario, after losing the 2014 Toronto Mayor election.

Rob (in)famously smoked crack cocaine, on video.

@altphoto
Doug Ford is the premier of Ontario. His brother Rob was the mayor of Toronto (Ontario's biggest city). He was very famous for abusing alcohol and other drugs while in office, then he died of cancer.
