You and Doug Ford don’t understand appeals?  Or, failing that, not making the change during an election?   

You and Doug Ford want to bust out the sledge hammer rather than the proper tool for the job just so you can stick it to the damn lefties.   

Like I said earlier, it’s the governing of an oaf.

This is not, to me, a left/right issue. It is an activist judiciary/democratically elected legislature issue. I don't know how long it takes to appeal a judicial decision but as people have already pointed out the election date is coming soon and likely there wouldn't have been time. And no, I don't know why Ford is so all fired eager to get it down for THIS election rather than waiting through to the next. Don't care either. It's the Toronto city council. I couldn't care less what he does to it - or for that matter, to my own city's. They're all a bunch of weasels anyway.

But he's the premier. He has a majority. The municipalities are all creations of the province, and so they have the right to do with them what they want.
