A DEBATE BETWEEN IDIOTS

Last nights debate at the Masonic Temple was pitiful: It was a landmark in how dysfunctional our political system has become.

There was not one candidate for mayor, at that debate, that deserves to be elected. If any of the medias handpicked candidates for mayor (5) are elected, this city will become mired in gridlock and social turmoil.

I speak to you now as a voter not a candidate for mayor, "Please vote for one of the other 32 candidates; a candidate who has no "strings" attached to their plans for this great city; a candidate that will represent your views and not the one who will pursue his/her own agenda ignoring the people who elected him/her.

I entered this race because I wanted to at least once have the opportunity to tell the voter how city councils, in the past, have been under the influence of racketeers. I do not mean that every past mayor or councillor was criminal in their actions; I mean that the majority of those voting on vital issues concerning the future of Toronto, sitting on city council, were under the influence of outside forces (racketeers). The center of this influence stems from Cassel Brock Law Firm i.e. Mr. Ralph Lean, Q.C. . Mr. Lean was appointed (by Mayor Miller) to the Waterfront Revitalization board and to the board concerning the Film Industry in Toronto. He was appointed to these prestigious positions in payment for his financing of the elections of various candidates for council and for mayor. Mr. Lean holds the strings. He was Mayor Millers puppeteer.
Mr. Lean is now fiscally supporting Mr. Smitherman and others in this civic election. "Around and around we go!!!!!!"

Please vote and vote well. This is your city! Elect the best candidates for Mayor and City Council!
