some choice excerpts:
'John Tory’s past and possibly future mayoral challenger Doug Ford is jumping into the 2017 budget debate with anti-Tory robocalls and an appearance at a Monday anti-tax meeting.
Mammoliti is hosting a forum Monday at 7 p.m. at Julius Banquet Centre on Finch Ave. W. billed as a public consultation on the proposed budget for “people who actually work for a living,” and were unable to go to city hall to make a formal deputation to the budget committee.
“The campaign is driven by me to stop the ludicrous spending that has to be happening at city hall and the real cash grabs we are trying to stop,” Mammoliti said in an interview Friday, adding he expects 500 to 1,000 people to attend and give feedback after hearing a city staff presentation on the proposed spending plan.
Ford said in an interview, “Someone has to hold Tory accountable. The media along with council, with the exception of Giorgio, have let Tory get away with wasting hundreds of millions of dollars along with recklessly taxing everything he can get his hands on.”
The former Ward 2 councillor said he has not yet decided if he will run for mayor or PC MPP in 2018.'
