"Joe Pantalone is a lovely guy, and he's done great work, but his ship has sailed" – Keith Cole, my choice for mayor of Toronto.
Keith Cole, unlike Pantalone, strongly opposed Pride Toronto's attempt to censor political messages from the Pride parade.
Pantalone's idea of running a progressive campaign is to court endorsements from centre-right former mayors like David Crombie and Art Eggleton.
Pantalone was the brains behind the BMO field fiasco, which resulted in yet another sports stadium being located in downtown Toronto, the last place the city needs more sports venues.
Pantalone stands for "growth", which is the enemy of liveable cities.
Pantalone supported the police riot against G20 protesters, and opposes the calling of a public inquiry.
Pantalone was part of the Miller administration, which was responsible for treacherous labour relations policies prior to, and during, the civic workers' strike last year.
So who are you supporting then?
What part of "Keith Cole, my choice for mayor of Toronto" did you not understand?
