By-law enforcement officers will consider handing out a fine to a mayoral candidate in the wake of Ford Fest, but not to the one you may be thinking of.
According to City of Toronto spokesperson Jackie D'souza, bylaw staff will meet with senior municipal licencing and standards staff next week to “determine the appropriateness” of charging Sarah Thomson with an offence after she rode a horse into Thomson Memorial Park on Friday night, violating a section of the city’s by laws which bans members of the public from bringing a horse into a public park.
Thomson was heckled by Ford supporters as she rode into the annual community barbecue alongside several campaign volunteers shortly after 5 p.m.
Thomson then left a short time later after bylaw enforcement staff informed her that she was in violation of section 608-33 of the parks bylaw.
Three by-law enforcement officers were on hand at the event after a number of residents expressed concern that Ford would use the barbecue to campaign, however D'souza told CP24 that there were no violations of the “permit conditions related to putting up election signs or distributing campaign literature” reported.
To be fair with Rob Ford who follows the rules I hope the City will go ahead and charge Sarah Thomson.
