Obviously true. I’ve never seen someone smoke crack before I started taking the Queen street car to work, and now I see it once a week. Taking transit shouldn’t require staring at the ground while addicts scream at the walls. Toronto needs change. Vote for Brad.

If we want to increase transit ridership, we need to make it safe, reliable and clean. Mayor Chow hasn't. I will. Vote for it on October 26th.

Watching @CP24 Mayor's debate. IMO Chow looks uncertain &98 uncomfortable. One observation I'd make overall: Mayor Chow attracted broad support by governing as a pragmatic centrist. As the campaign has tightened these past few days she's lurched left to animate her base.

I now live in Toronto and was not going to comment on the Mayoral race until the Chow campaign turned very negative in the last two weeks. That negativity turned up in my mailbox today. It leads me to share my strong public support for Brad Bradford for many reasons. 1/4

“The mayor is being very dishonest with voters right now. And it's all scare tactics and fear mongering for a campaign that is out of ideas.” Toronto Mayoral Candidate Brad Bradford makes his pitch to voters on Moore In The Morning. youtube.com/watch?v=DFgTD9UU…

Replying to @LWaler
The provincial legislation literally does not allow privatization. It must stay public. And, the entire reasons for this program is to make housing and economic development costs lower to make those very things more affordable for people.

Twelve years ago today, Corporal Nathan Cirillo was killed while standing sentry at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Several others were injured. Two days earlier, in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Québec, Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent was killed in a separate attack. The attacks of October 2014 left a lasting mark on our country, but they did not change who we are. pm.gc.ca/en/news/statements/…

What a fascinating swing in #topoli I've seen, in my poll, a public that is almost sad about the state of things in Toronto. Not anger, as much as frustration. Bradford describes the city being stuck. That's a perfect way to describe how most feel where the city is. Stuck in traffic. Stuck in a housing affordability crisis. Stuck at home cause people feel communities aren't as safe as they should be or the TTC isn't safe enough to use. The only thing holding many people back from voting for change was 1. Needing to learn more about the alternative (Brad) and 2. Recognizing you could at once like Olivia Chow personally but also think she hasn't performed well as a mayor. All two things are happening and it's lead to Brad having a now more than 50% chance of winning on Monday.
Hearing from a source in the Chow campaign that Chow is further behind than most public-facing polls indicate. As in, Chow is likely to lose and Bradford likely to win unless something significant changes in the next five days.

Toronto Water will stay public. Always. My plan would lower your water bills by up to 25% by paying for long-term infrastructure over the long term.

Olivia Chow’s campaign is desperate. If you don’t believe the polls, just look at how she’s acting. torontosun.com/opinion/colum…

These slow zones on #TTC line 1 are only getting worse. It’s literally faster to walk along some stretches of the subway system.
