Yes he does.Tory doesn't have the power to allow or disallow Council to do anything.
Yes he does.
And how exactly is that?
Tory can act as "whip" and push councilors to vote for his motin. Kind of like Ford did when he had political capital.
Why shouldn't they? Ultimately any taxpayer money comes from the citizens. That extra $2Billion ultimately will cost everyone in Toronto about $1,000.I wish people would stop complaining about the extra costs of the SSE.
If they do indeed go ahead with the Scarborough Subway Extension, The McCowan route is the most logical.Steve Munro summarizes SSE news: http://stevemunro.ca/2015/05/28/scarborough-subway-update-may-27-2015/
It's just unusual for city councillors to vote against major initiatives of a popular, freshly elected mayor. The mayor of Toronto receives the largest direct mandate of any politician in Canada (since in a parliamentary democracy, leaders are elected in their ridings and by the caucus, not directly by all voters), which should be worth something.
