A week ago, the sitting Toronto city councillor and former mayor succumbed to the cancer he had been suffering from for a year and a half. He was 46.
Almost immediately, online petitions were started wanting to name Centennial Park or the Etobicoke Civic Centre or a subway station after the late mayor. The fact these petitions were launched before the body was cold was totally inappropriate; there will be time in the future to discuss and debate naming something or other after the late mayor. The family, out of respect should be consulted on such matters but more than that, the Ford family has been good to Torontonians. One example was throwing parties known as "Ford Fest" where all people, even the haters, were welcome to attend. The family gave a lot to the community and should be allowed to grieve without seeing proposed sites that should be named after the late mayor.The Comment section of online publications is the new front in the ongoing Cancel Culture Battle.
