Remember the days when we considered Toronto the great city nicknamed Toronto The Good. As time passed and it became North Americas fourth largest city it is being called many things but good is not in the name.It is a great city but for some reason it has not been able to produce a great mayor for many years.
It is a great responsibility to be a mayor of any city but to be in control of a city like Toronto calls upon special skills as Toronto is fifty cities in one.The immigration from people around the world makes it special. The rich heritage of numerous peoples who came and settled in areas with names like Little Italy, Greek Town and many ,many more give it a exciting flavour.
With this growth came new challenges as crime and challenges make the job of managing this diversity one of humongous proportions.The present mayor is a person who had good ideas and has done some good things BUT he has shown to be a person devoid of the managing skills and character required to carry out the task. His background mired in the street culture made him a person who had a task that was above his ability.
He has clearly shown to keep his street buddies and their culture of drugs and criminal behavior and should exit from the Mayors Chair for the good of the city and his own well being.The city is becoming the laughing stock of North America and probably the world. Halloween has come and gone but in Toronto it will always be trick or treat as long as Mayor Ford is in power.
