Toronto doesn't need enemies. Mayor Miller and his socialists have utterly surrendered to their comrades in the union. Why did he bother putting up the facade for the last 6 weeks. Council should reject this fiasco, but they wont. This contract will inevitably lead to more taxes. I guess Toronto voters are reaping what they have sown.
The 44 members of Toronto council owe it to the residents of the city to reject the contract reached this week with 30,000 striking municipal workers.
In rejecting the agreement, councillors will be standing up for voters in a way Mayor David Miller has failed to do. Mr. Miller promised much in leading the city into a strike, but has delivered little of what he pledged. His failure to keep his word means Torontonians have endured a summer of closed pools, shuttered daycare, scruffy parks and mounting trash heaps for no reason.
Voters will have a chance to cast a ballot on his actions in next year’s municipal election. Meanwhile, someone has to stand up for the people of the city, assuming the leadership role the Mayor has abandoned.

Torontonians have the Municipal government they deserve... too right. I was born there, and will never go back. Why would I? Socialist fartcatcher for the Unions as a Mayor, A Liberal provincial government that is so flexible that its spineless, and a innate need to be a Federal Liberal stronghold? What masochistic thing is it about that city that they continually vote in politicians who gouge them and screw them?
Nothing there to make me want to return.
It was the perfect strike, garbage in summer. It wasn't funny watching tourists dodging the garbage containers overflowing on Yonge Street. But what are you going to do when the gang running city hall are socialists anyways? Not only is Toronto looking more and more like NYC with all the condos but it is likely to copy it in another way: bankrupcy. (real conservative)
