Neither Nick Kouvalis nor Richard Ciano, the campaign managers credited with vaulting Rob Ford into the mayor’s chair, will help Ford get re-elected in 2014 unless he takes steps to clean up his “health and well-being.”

Ciano, president of the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party, confirmed that Kouvalis, his business partner in Campaign Research, has long made his concerns known directly to Ford and to those around him.

“I’m going to follow Nick’s lead when it comes to the Ford work we do,” Ciano said in an interview. “He has expressed some concerns about the mayor’s condition.

“It’s wait-and-see as to whether we work on his campaign. I wish (Ford) the best. How seriously he takes his health and overall well-being will determine how things go forward.”
