You crack me up, Whackey--you get two conservative sources and suddenly you're an expert on Toronto politics. Of course, as is usually the case, you don't know **** about the subject. I started a thread on Rob Ford years ago, literally. You just noticed this story, but overnight, you're an expert. What a loon.
According to the Wikipedia article, Miller defeated John Tory 43% to 38% (with 9% going to former mayor and unofficial NDP candidate Barbara Hall), and he was re-elected by a margin of 57% to 32%--bright boy. Certainly Miller had his problems, but going to his political opposition's media organs for evidence is hardly a balanced approach.
In my opinion, Toronto serves a valuable function to the U.S., in taking the overflow of new immigrants, that cannot immigrate to the U.S.
Similar to the liberal slogan, "spread the wealth around," Canada/Toronto helps the U.S. "spread the immigrants around." For this I thank our northern neighbor.
wait, Ford was just stripped of almost all of his power, should we strip Obama? Seriously, did the city counsel make a political mistake by going after a still somewhat popular mayor?

americans feel your pain on that one, as our cities are pretty much neglected messes, but I am seeing almost universal opinion that Toronto has been a big mess for a long time. I am rooting for you though, I very much loved the city during my three day visit in 77.
