    Doug Ford, a combative right-wing politician who has often been compared to President Trump, wants to cut the Toronto City Council in half, saying the move would reduce costs and bureaucracyhttps://nyti.ms/2OdqH1X

        Can I just pause for a moment to admire how many fellow liberals I've gotten to like/retweet material from the Fraser Institute?

        No, Doug Ford is infringing on our Charter of Rights. The judicial system has already said so, but he's a bully pushing through his vengeance against a city that rejected him DO BETTER HEADLINES NYT!

        You're absolutely correct. Wrong headline. Toronto is the vanguard now for all Ontarians. If we don't find a way to get conservative MPPs to vote no on s33, then the entire province is in danger from privatization, pillaging of resources etc. It's not only about our city council.
