Big Piece Of Poop Withdraws From Mayoral Race
VICTORIA, British Columbia -- Mr. Floatie, a community activist who dresses up in a feces costume to decry the pumping of raw sewage into the waters off British Columbia's capital, has withdrawn his name as a candidate for mayor.
The city had planned to challenge Mr. Floatie's candidacy in court.
James Skwarok, the man inside the costume, said the city apparently took issue with his candidacy because only real people can run for municipal office.
"Of course I'm not a real person," Skwarok said earlier this week. "I'm a big piece of poop."
Skwarok was not available for further comment.
