One comment
Very quite night after Lorinc’s activation.
I would comment on Globe editorial an ‘excessive critcism,’ and disagree. The Mayor has for years arrogantly put down opponents with claims of his fiscal competence and prudent leadership and now by admitting that the City has no money in his scam confrontation with CUPE he has admitted the falseness of his so recent previous claims.
His opponents as is their democratic right have full justification and duty to confront hypocrisy.
There is no piling on penalty in politics and the Mayor has followed the same course in his leadership so should be given no quarter.
