The Toronto mayoral race between incumbent Mayor Olivia Chow and Councillor Brad Bradford is now neck-and-neck. Whatever happens next, this is a huge upset to the assumption that Toronto is a left-wing city craving left-wing policies.
What this tells us, regardless of who wins on Monday night, is that Toronto residents shouldn’t be taken for granted by the NDP and that they do care about fiscal stability and public safety.
Toronto is in decline, the population is majority foreign born.
White flight has hollowed out the city.
It can’t be reversed.
