Breaking: Mayor Tory Steps Down.

[danmand]

Here's a link to Toronto Council's Code of Conduct: https://www.toronto.ca/city-government/accountability-operations-customer-service/accountability-officers/integrity-commissioner/code-of-conduct-for-members-of-council/#:~:text=Members should act with integrity,and bears close public scrutiny.

These isn't anything there that explicitly prevents politicians from having relationships with staff. There's just an obligation to avoid conflicts of interest and to act in a way that bolsters public confidence. I doubt they could have removed Tory for breach of the Code. I say this as someone who doesn't like Tory personally or like his policies for the city. (I would also concede that there are certainly FAR worse options, 2 of which have already said they are considering running). I read the Sanfiro web material that someone else linked, but frankly, like Sanfiro always is, the material is a little contradictory and superficial. Goes with the territory of representing the employee side of employment law disputes.

I think the decision to step down is ENTIRELY about Tory trying to avoid getting fleeced by a divorce. He needs to give Barb 100% of what she wants right now, including his time and the right optics, if he has any shot at that. Frankly, I'd say his chances are poor. She probably knew that John was getting serviced elsewhere (what else would an intelligent woman think when she isn't taking care of business?). Why else would she vamoose to Florida all through Covid? As usual, her "horrified" reaction is likely more about the public exposure that they have a sexless/loveless marriage than about the reality that she probably is mostly to blame for that.

The reality is that we live in a society where a woman can completely let her husband down sexually/emotionally, but men are considered to be the villains when they solve the problem their wife created.

Her decision whether to divorce Tory will be mostly about whether she's happier with 50% of his money and an open calendar vs. 100% of his money and lots of events in posh social circles. Might be a hard decision for her. It will have nothing to do with whether they can rekindle any romantic relationship, cause that's deader than Dead John A. MacDonald!

He is really stupid if he resigned to avoid a divorce. He will never live it down. His wife and children will hate him forever, even as his wife stayed in Florida for years on end. The marriage was likely over already except financially.

He can live comfortably on half of his money.
They hardly see each other anyway.

It would be hard to part with half his money, no matter how many people might tell him that life will actually be better, especially when there's no better woman waiting for him.

This is true to a certain extent. No one wants to lose half of their wealth but a man of his power and healthy assets\bank accounts will not have a problem attracting women. He just has to make sure he doesn't get taken by a gold digger.

Easier said than done to meet an attractive, sexually active woman who isn't a gold digger when you're pushing 70!

I resisted a divorce for many years, mostly because of the inevitable financial hit and upheaval. It was the dumbest thing I ever did (and I have done a few).

I fortunately met a gold digger, and I am very happy.

Divorce is expensive because it is worth it!

How will The Thug at Queens Park deal with:

A Josh Matlow, a Mike Layton, a Gord Perks or any other progressive mayoral candidate winning the mayoral election?

Can you imagine that The Thug will countenance any of the above having the strong mayor powers that he legally granted to the mayor any mayor, which allows the mayor to override even a conservative 2/3rds majority vote by council. It's not what he envisioned with his 2 strong mayors powers acts. In fact it's the exact opposite of what he desired.

After Mel Lastman, Rob Ford and now John Tory ruining the city for 2 decades, Toronto really is ready for a change from inaction.

Why else would she vamoose down to Florida during the thick of the pandemic you ask while the little people were told to stay home which included no flying? Because there she could get her hair done and still live a relatively normal life including eating in a BBQ joint if she wanted- while her hubby shut mostly everything down in Toronto. The bonus for Johnny was it made it much easier to fuck his young "assistant" with the wife out of the picture down in the freedom state.

Regarding your last paragraph this saga reminds me of a young Kamala "heels up" Harris who got her political head start in San Fran during the 90's, as then mayor Willie Browns 30 year his junior side piece. His wife decided your option B.

Don't these video's from February 2021 make just a little more sense now?

The man did a great job during Covid and chased a troll out of our fair city. Bye, Bye Adam Skully and for that alone I would vote for John again.

Tory was a total hypocrite. Banging a 31 yr old intern, yet making successful businesses, close down, for no reason!!

What does banging a hottie who was by his side the entire time have to do with the rest of your claim??? Boyfriends and girlfriends, boyfriends and boyfriends, girlfriends and girlfriends didn't have sex during COVID???

 

[squeezer]

Toronto's mayor gets COVID, even though he's fully vaxxed (and coerced others to get jabbed too)

Mr. Tory: when you recover, kindly apologize to the citizens of your beleaguered city for unnecessary roughness.

Anything from Rebel news unless it is David Menzie getting his assed kicked or even better Ezra then I do not care to read about it. Rebel is a bullshit and nonsense source of information.

Now this was a wonderful thing, AHHHHHHHH

There were public health directives at the time about avoiding in person dating during Covid (and limiting your circle of contacts in general), as well as using masks and other barriers during sex.

This version of the "stop the spread" guide has been updated, but still makes general reference to restricting direct contact with people. I remember the Medical Officer of Health for the city talking about how that applied to dating at the height of Covid.

https://www.toronto.ca/home/covid-19/covid-19-reduce-virus-spread/

Banging some fresh tail who is not in your inner circle does seem to contradict the advice being given to the public at the time.

Granted, that advice was all BS, was widely ignored, and did little to nothing to stop the spread.

Please show me in the link you posted where it says banging your girlfriend or boyfriend should be done with masks and other barriers. That is what they were, mind you, she was a mistress but John was living here alone because his wife was in Florida if the stories are true. Add in, John during his affair was fully vacinated and I'm sure the little cutie was too.

I propose a TERB resolution:

Whereas it is only reasonable for an older male to have consensual sex with a younger women, when his wife is far away for prolonged periods.

All in favour?

Douggie changed the Toronto city council to give more power to the right wing burbs, then he helped his buddy Tory get all the mayoral 'special powers'.
What could be interesting is if Toronto is pissed off enough about health care, nurses, schools and the greenbelt to vote in a more left mayor who will all of a sudden have power that Douggie will try to cut again.

I wouldn't put it past that fat fuck to do this.

The political chatter is that the conservative campaign machine is already working hard on trying to get a pro-Ford candidate up and running.

Just glad do-nothing Tory is gone, at least the potential is there to get a decent mayor. Not getting my hopes up though, Toronto disappoints.

Barbara Hackett is a 66 year old grandmother who suffers from Guillain -Barre Syndrome which is a very painful neurological auto-immune syndrome that can be exacerbated by cold, humid weather such as a Toronto winter. This might explain why Tory’s wife was in Florida a lot.
However, the four kids and Tory’s wife decided not to attend the Mayoral campaign headquarters victory in the fall of 2022 for whatever reasons but Emily Hillstrom did.

Two non partisan words of advice men.

1-Don't shit where you eat.

2-Keep your dick out of Venus Fly Traps.
