Olivia Chow is the widow of Jack Layton, so basically NDP royalty.

Re: Olivia Chow elected as Toronto’s mayor
A little background on how this election came to be.
John Tory was elected mayor in October, 2022.
February, 2023 he admitted to having an affair with a staff member, and resigned causing this election.
Apparently it's ok for a politician to screw taxpayers but staff members are off limits.

Re: Olivia Chow elected as Toronto’s mayor
I don't know what is wrong with voters other than they are mostly idiots. I don't know what anyone sees in Seattle or San Francisco and why Toronto would want to emulate these cesspool cities. So say hello to triple the crime, and double the drugs. Hey, let's send our addicts to Toronto, the new caring city where the police have been cancelled.

Maybe Ms Chow will build Toronto into a homeless mecca, then they won't all travel out West and to Kelowna?

Seems that Communist China would be solidly behind the raving Communist Chow.

Granted it's been some time, but the last time I visited Toronto ten years back, the thing that stood out to me the most, was that English speaking people, seemed to be the minority.The Green Barbarian wrote: ↑Jun 26th, 2023, 9:55 pmYes, Chow is insane.

I don't know if that's a factor or not.

I grew up about twenty miles from Toronto, in fifties through the sixties, and that was not the case then.

Doubtful, ever been in Toronto in winter time. It’s down right nasty. Kelowna winters are paradise in comparison.
I don't give a damn whether people/posters like me or dislike me, I'm not on earth to win any popularity contests. I am an old cantankerousness grump that happens to be very opinionated.

yes, Toronto in winter just plain sucks. Just like their leftist politicians.
