Wonderful Day

September 25, 2009 @ 12:36

What a wonderful day for the city of Toronto. David Miller, the one man wrecking crew of a Canada's greatest city has announced he will not run for a third term.

Miller has sited family reasons for making this decision, and for that we must respect him, but at the same time, let's not kid ourselves, he's well aware of the damage he's done and the huge hole he's created for the city.

He's not coming back because he knows the city is well beyond any hope of recovering from the damage he has done in any short time period.

Miller says he stand behind his record, but it's a record that would get nowhere near by turn-table. It doesn't matter what aspect of the city you look at, it's worse off now than it was when he took over.

Financially, infrastructure, transit, cleanliness and ironically, socially the city is a freakin' mess compared to what he inherited from every lefties favourite whipping boy Mel Lastman.

Hopefully the voters of Toronto have learned their lesson and will opt for a businessman as their next Mayor. More than any other level of government a city has to be run like a business and you need the appropriate person in control.

What a shame that John Tory lost to Miller back in 2003. Toronto could have been saved from all of this and undoubtedly been in much better shape than it is today.

But that was then, and this is now and looking forward Toronto has been saved from any more David Miller, arguably the worst Mayor in the city's history.

Hopefully CFRB will be in the market for a new afternoon man in the coming months.

My only regret is that we have to put up with one more year of that guy.
And the idea that Smitherman might take his place doesn't sit with me at all.

When Lastman was running the show I thought, there is no way someone can do worse... and then Miller came along and made Lastman look like a hero.

My only wish is that Toronto doesn't continue this downward trend and a few years from now I'll be saying the same about Miller.

Miller and McGuinty-Teflon men. How many Provincial scandals in one month---4 so far.

Amen Pam!

Tory or Smitherman are not much of an improvement. I realize my neighbor's German shepherd could do a better job than Miller but those 2 knobs are not the solution to Toronto's problems.

The city needs a Guliani type of guy. Chief Fantino perhaps.

Argie, Fantino would scare the sock and Birkenstock wearing CBC'ers half to death. What would they do with their safe injection sites, and the homeless if this industry was shut down by Fantino LOL.
Good riddance to Miller, but too bad the public gets to pick up the tab for his mess.

Wonder if he will resign from Invest Toronto now that Bryant is ourt of the way?

Fred Patterson for Mayor!

Guess what? It doesn't matter who the mayor is in Toronto. Toronto's mayor has no real executive power, and their vote doesn't mean more than any other councillors vote. All the mayor has is a higher profile. Until the system is changed, Toronto's problem is the council as a whole. Pick on Miller all you want, you're just fooling yourselves.

A type of sheepskin boots that has become quite popular in the United States is the Ugg boots. These are made of sheepskin and lined with wool, making them very practical in terms of providing warmth.

This is a smart weblog. I mean it. You’ve so much knowledge about this issue, and so much passion. You also understand how to make individuals rally behind it, obviously from the responses. Youve got a design right here thats not too flashy, but makes a statement as big as what you’re saying. Great job, indeed.
