Urban Shocker
Doyenne
When I asked if any of them would support paying =/- half of a $25 million cost for something cool like this...the answer is the same as usual "nah, we can't waste tax dollars on something like that"......we want everything every city has....we just don't want to pay for it. (my opinion of a generalized Toronto attitude).
Toronto taxpayers have already bought an important, landmark Anish Kapoor, much earlier than Chicagoans purchased theirs ( Untitled, Mountain was his first public commission, in fact ... ), and we paid $500,000 for it as befits our status as an early-adopter city.
Whether they're talking up a ferris wheel because they saw one in some foreign city, or going gaga over one of Kapoor's big shiny objects, the Fords consistently reveal themselves for the know-nothing rubes that they are.
