Joe Cimino is running for the Ontario NDP in the riding of Sudbury in the 2014 provincial election.
He's been a city councillor there, as well as a teacher and member of the library board.
Cimino casts himself as a "local champion who will get results for Sudbury."
But there's just something about the guy. He looks so much like someone we know.
Can you guess the one?
Nothing yet? Okay, we'll spoil the surprise.
Yes, just as Rob Ford has been spirited away to a rehab facility, along comes a candidate for a left-wing party to ensure that the Toronto mayor's spirit haunts the Ontario election.
For his part, Cimino recognizes the resemblance and he takes it in stride.

@rjbrennan @queerthoughts : My staff, volunteers and I are working hard! And I'm generally considered more handsome than Ford. =)
