Hmm did not know that, its strange they would go from mountain to completely flat Toronto. I guess some people get tired of living in mountains as well
He was getting torn up on social media. Toronto is a renters city now. Freezing property taxes and “Finding efficiencies” won’t cut it.
He ran a decent campaign but in the wrong city.
My guess is homeowners would be more inclined to vote than renters. Plus, for every property a renter lives in, you have a property owner with voting rights unless the property is owned by a corporation, I believe.
Bullshit. He gave a speech congratulating her, and has not in any way impuned the results.
He also called her personally to congratulate her. He’s handled the loss with professionalism, and I'm not a fan of his.
Ford was not and still is not the elected mayor of Toronto since he formed his 1st provincial gov't in 2018, but that has not stopped him, for almost 8 year now, behaving as the mayor/emperor of Toronto.
That is the point.
And all of the other shit u have pointed out about local Toronto government since 2010 till today sidesteps like a pile of manure, the antics and utter bullshit of the bully brothers and the autocratic actions of Doug Ford in particular.
You're just not credible in the least.

Now the above is a joke of a statement.
After 2 /12 year of NOT representing his constituents and being an absentee councilor in The Beaches/East York ward and occupying all that useless time and space whining and carping about everything under the sun about Toronto, with nary a positive comment nor any smidgeon of viable, functional and actionable idea that may improve the city, your negative Nancy Bradford was running a mayoral campaign all through wasted time and space.
A few seconds of a congratulations speech to the deserved winner does not even begin to erase his 2/12years of negativity and nastiness.
Many of the so called homeless and panhandlers are on ODSP or OW , and have a free place to stay and free food , Nobody is starving now are they ?
They often reside on and off in the free government dwelling and in the homeless encampments alternately any in anycase, food is available. One draw of the encampments is easier access to controlled substances .
Toronto has the medical support system, nurses, physicians, mental health and caseworkers that other municipalities lack
so “ homeless encampments “ thrive and out of Toronto folks are drawn here ( often sent here) and dwell and increase in numbers for similar reasons to the coyowolf population which are opportunistic scavengers.
These unfortunate souls ideally should be in the workforce but are often unemployable due to drug addiction, mental health issues and / or lack of any work ethic.
People complain about immigration, but these immigrants and doing jobs that these homeless across Canada should be doing which is such a waste of human resources and taxpayer dollars.
No Toronto mayor can fix this homeless encampment problem without major support at the provincial and federal levels.
I watched the campaign. Chow told lies and went hard negative, along with her union stooges and progress Toronto bullies.
Spare us your usual tirade please.
From your post #56: ".... her union stooges and progress Toronto bullies."
But, you want her to step down and let younger progressives and their union stooges and progress Toronto bullies to run in her place. You don't make sense as usual..
But, why won't your hero The Emperor of Toronto, Doug "I'm So Corrupt Ford" stay in his lane, mind his own fuckin business, stop shitting all over the people of Toronto and do, just fuckin do the job he was elected to do instead bigfooting, steamrolling, bulldozing, and pillaging the city of Toronto and it's citizens?
You fret about about nonsense while avoiding the Big Fat Blue Pig in the room.
But, you've have always been the most shameless hypocrite in these parts.

You didn't need to go far into the debates to see she is fucking clueless and has no pulse of the city.
Debates: 3:15
Question: "What's one thing you see in Toronto that tells you that Toronto is succeeding?"
Olivia's "response":
"Succeeding, we're doing well. The road is beautiful smooth and that there is no homeless on the street and people are friendly to each other on the street.
That there aren't too many pot holes.
People are feeling 'ahhh" they don't have to worry about their rent and also feeding the kids.
You can slow down a little bit, enjoy the sun and the environment.
Have a good job and having a way to make ends meet and to me, feeling optimistic that Toronto is doing better".
I don't know what that's called in psychology but she said exactly what's going on in the city and it's bad, there's nothing optimistic about what she claims to see.
What a fucking tool.
