The Toronto area is currently averaging 2 people killed and 5 people seriously or critically injured *every week* by drivers in vehicles. There have been 0 gun related deaths in that time. Anyone *actually* concerned about safety in Toronto should be looking at road safety.

Obvious solution here: CANCEL the white elephant 413 scheme. Stop blowing all our money trying to concrete over the Greenbelt.

Incoming Mississauga Mayor Alvin Tedjo is set visit Queen’s Park today to meet with the Municipal Affairs minister and the PC party’s Mississauga caucus.
Tedjo’s the first mayor to visit the legislature post election.
Like other municipalities, he’ll need cash and favourable decisions from the Ford gov’t to fulfil parts of his election platform.
