If he ran, based on the candidates we've seen so far, I think he'd win.

However, an "important" announcement could also be a resignation.

Suggestion: Let's stop speculating. Jack Layton's experience is too close for comfort.

radiorahim just told me, "David Miller's making an "important announcement" tomorrow."  My first response: "Oh wow, maybe he's running!"  My second, immediate follow up: "Oh god, I hope he's okay."

So yeah, Unionist's post resonates with me right now.

There's talk of a UN appointment.

Doesn't sound like a resignation.

Just saying the budget is balanced for the next two years and the property tax increase will be lower.

Not running, not quitting. 680 News cut away before the Q & A with reporters so I don't know if he's given any hint about reconsidering in response to questions from reporters.

this was a stupid media grab. he announced that the budget cycle will be a 2 year budget for the city rather than a yearly city budget.

no appointment, not running, not leaving early, not publically endorsing another candidate.

 

this was much ado about nothing !!!!!

It seems to have annoyed the conservatives - so it works for me!

Joe Pantalone was at the event in his capacity as Deputy Mayor. So, while not an endorsement, it certainly doesn't help his profile.

I have to laugh at the protests of Smitherman and Rossi. I guess good news for the city is bad news for them.

while their are some cons who are pissed their are also some of us on the left who feel used by this ... this idea may have merit but you know what it should have been on the council agenda to be debated and introduced via council. shit he has the votes to shut up the cons at concil anyways.
