Olivia Chow romps to victory as head of progressive new Toronto council

Spurned by Ford!

Olivia Chow is preparing to lead Toronto for another four years, after an emphatic victory over former councillor Brad Bradford Monday night.

Chow will oversee a progressive, new-look council with several of her key allies elected, putting her in a strong position to pursue her agenda.

The returning mayor started the year looking comfortably ahead, before it appeared Bradford could surge into the mayor’s chair.

In the end, she won a massive victory — netting roughly 530,000 votes, according to the unofficial results (official results will come once they’ve been certified by the city clerk).
