On October 25, Torontonians will go to the polls to elect a new mayor and city council. These municipal elections, held throughout the province of Ontario, will take place a week and a day before the US midterms.
The election campaign that officially began in January is turning out to be a strange one for Canada’s largest city whose downtown core is a hotbed of Canadian elite socialism. There are certainly parallels between what is happening in what was once called “Toronto the Good” and what is taking place in the US with the success of the Tea Party candidates.
