| Sunflower lady files papers |
Karen Stintz has launched her campaign for mayor by making a number of appearances including NewsTalk 1010, where she was treated with perfect cordiality. There is much to be learned from the established hashtag home of #topoli (Toronto Politics on Twitter for the uninitiated) It is here you can learn such things as Ms. Stintz’s confession (declaration?) that her campaign will be symbolized by the sunflower. Always positive and looking on the bright side, or something like that. David Soknacki announces “I’m not a celebrity, but I am the only fiscally responsible candidate.” as he “welcomes” Karen Stintz and John Tory to the race. Desmond Cole notes that Mayor Ford’s assessment that the proof (of the election outcome) will be in the pudding has caused police to deploy to Loblaws. (Sigh). And finally, when you check out #topoli, notice the furious tweeting of the city planner, Jennifer Keesmaat. Well heck, maybe planning is political. Here is a good wrap of the day’s events in the campaign until noon Monday by CP24’s Chris Kitching.
