Mayor John Tory's Toronto

[JWBF]

Why not just allocate the money the city gets every year from Toronto Hydro and state it will go towards transit (and even pick a particular project). If the city gets $150M-2ooM every year (not sure exactly how much), in 5 years that is $750M-1B. At least even after 5 years the city will still be collecting the dividend money. Don't these politician get it. Once an asset is sold the money is gone forever

I know this will upset some people but IMO it's typical for Conservatives to reduce or eliminate money flow so they can prove the need for "efficiencies" and for Liberals to misuse monies in the long run.

An interesting happenstance:

Why Mayor John Tory is against competition for access to affordable fast broadband: Geist
CRTC submissions how Canadian cities are addressing the critical need for affordable high-speed Internet services in different ways.

IMO the interwebs should be made an essential service.

As always, Calgary Mayor Nenshi is on the right side of everything, while mayor Tory has never met a corporate interest he didn't defend.

Hmmmm. Sounds like enhanced profiling to me. Chief Saunders also called profiling "community engagement". After Forcillo trial I'm glad the Special Patrols won't carry firearms in case they run into another Andrew Loku situation.

If we didn't get Tory as mayor, it was going to be Doug Ford. Chow was a non factor at the end. I am only speaking for myself, but I am fine with the person who got elected.

A city like Toronto should have been able to produce better choices. Chow was pathetic, like Horvath and Mulcair respectively. Tory's the proof that fiscal conservatives can't get past that to be social progressives.

Mr. Tory, there's a Mr. Sean Penn who wants to arrange a time to interview you.

A Liberal Prime Minister visiting a Progressive Conservative Mayor? Why didn't the former Conservative Prime Minister visit either of the two Progressive Conservative Mayors?

Following that, will Trudeau be having dinner with Giorgio Mammoliti and Cesar Palacio at Zanzibar?

Arrogance? Fear? Embarrassment?

He was probably too busy battling it out on Twitter with Dallas Cowboys' former coach, Jerry Jones, over who has the more formidable head of hair.

Now, I would like to see former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney's son, Ben, interview former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau's son, Justin. However, Ben is on an entertainment show, E-Talk, so don't know if that would be possible.
