| 1624424973455564800 | @AdrianGhobrial @PaulaFletcherTO Affairs are not great I get it. But as she said herself he ran for a third term. @JohnTory never had plans to resign. Someone forced his hand. To me that is more worrisome than an affair. | 10 |
| 1625967317157875715 | This is actually a good proposal from @PaulaFletcherTO. However, Toronto needs to quadruple the permit parking rate in order to be on par with nearby off-street lots. #BudgetTO #TOpoli https://t.co/da8ZHK60We | 8 |
