It felt this week like candidates in Toronto’s race to pick a new mayor started to use their elbows a little bit more.
Multiple candidates issued statements and tweets taking shots at their rivals.
Ana Bailao called former council colleague Josh Matlow, a “plagiarist,” accusing him of cribbing his platform from former candidate Gil Penalosa. Mark Saunders also took a swipe at Matlow, saying during an announcement “I usually chuckle when I hear candidates like Josh Matlow chastise people for using cars.”
Will we look back and say that this election marked the end of Toronto? I suspect so if a left leaning mayor is elected.
