Mayor John Tory.... Campaign Lies.... Here We Go Again!

Mayor Tory considers himself a Toronto elite, Upper Canada College graduate, lawyer, wealthy
 country club member etc,etc. On the campaign trail for mayor he deliberately lied to the people of Toronto. First, he ran on "no increase in TTC rates", secondly, "a balanced budget with an increase based on cost of living". The TTC  rate increase was not his fault he says. It was Mayor Fords' cut in services that he was unaware of, that caused the increase in TTC fares to restore said services.... However, he deliberately lied on a promise to balance the budget. It seems he "borrowed" $87 million from the Ontario Government in order to achieve a balanced budget. Since borrowing monies from the province had never been done before, the Toronto Councillors understood it to be additional funding from Queens Park and almost missed that it was a loan.

So now we have a $ 87 million deficit in the budget! He has increased property taxes, water usage and garbage pickup rates in the budget. So what new taxes can we look forward to in the future? Maybe Toronto should expropriate all privately owned golf courses and Upper Canada College for property to build affordable housing.

To put it bluntly, John Tory is a lying bastard . I am sure this will continue for the next four years. By the way,is it against the law to burn any/all lying politicians at the stake in Toronto? We could make such a burning a public holiday.
