Peace to John Tory this morning for he has brought peace to much of the City by deciding that Toronto will not be bidding for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games. The news is in the Toronto Star. An announcement will be made later today. It was not Mr. Tory’s decision alone by any means. He knew just how much resistance there was at City Council to this risky act of civic hubris. It is so wise to have put aside the silly shouts that Toronto needed to be put on the map. What rubbish.
