Re: Race for Toronto Mayor
That slack definition of Toronto does include part of Etobicoke, yes, it even includes Costco. The subway goes out that far so I can see a case for pushing the boundaries out like that.

Re: Race for Toronto Mayor
They had no interest in my Citizenship Certificate.
They just looked at my Ontario driving license and let me vote for what I wanted.
What if I arrived of a plane last month and swapped my foreign driving license then I'd still be allowed to vote. The system really is open to abuse.
Don't get me started on the chaos of trying to get in the place and the several line ups.

Quite disappointed with the municipal electoral process.

You have to be on the electoral list to vote. No citizen not on the list. You would have been added when you got your citizenship.
It was empty when ben and I voted

Re: Race for Toronto Mayor
I just filled in a form and signed and showed them my driving license.
They then gave me a card. Nothing electronic till the anonymous vote paper submitted.

Re: Race for Toronto Mayor
The fact that 36% or so of Torontonians still seem to have voted for Doug the thug should be rather concerning for the collective sanity of the place!

Re: Race for Toronto Mayor
What about Rob being elected city councillor in Ward 2 Etobicoke North with 58% of the vote? He says he's going to take care of his health first then get right in there and start representing his people.

Re: Race for Toronto Mayor
He looked in awful condition on the TV. As much as the rhetoric was fighting the next election I think the message last night was clear.
