I forget names a lot these days, especially politicians'. All the anathema of yesteryear are blotted from my memory, which is a consolation of growing old. Also all the anathema of yesteryear have lookalike Anglo name, so who can keep them straight anyway? Michael Harris, Stephen Harper, Robert Ford: prior to which the memory of me runneth not.
This because I wanted a mnemonic for a detective novel writer- Deborah Crombie- and somehow got mayor David Crombie (the 'tiny perfect mayor' of the 70s when City Hall stood up to developers) mixed up with his antithesis Mr. Ford in my mind.
