ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel noted an interesting fact in his opening monologue Tuesday night, stating that Toronto Mayor Rob Ford has a higher approval rating among his constituents, at 44 percent, than President Barack Obama has with the American people, at 39 percent.
JIMMY KIMMEL: What makes the story remarkable to me. Despite the fact that he admitted smoking crack after lying about it, Rob Ford's approval rating has not dipped a bit in Toronto. He is still holding steady. He is rock steady at 44 percent, which I think is better than President Obama does here. Canadians really are nicer than we are.
Rob Ford recently admitted to smoking crack cocaine.
