Read MoreTell Ford: Hands Off Toronto→
/Doug Ford is meddling with Toronto City Hall again. Ford wants to expand the mayor’s powers in Toronto and Ottawa to create a “strong mayor” system where, as Ford said, “one person [is] in charge, with veto power.”
Handing local city councillors’ powers over to the mayor makes it even harder for people to have their say at City Hall. We need better representation, not less. Use our petition to send a message directly to your local representatives and tell them to stand up for our local democracy.
