Anthony Furey: There isn’t much separating Olivia Chow and Brad Bradford
Toronto voters wait for mayoral race to heat up
Toronto's mayoral election is six weeks away, but a defining issue has yet to emerge. The current mayor, Olivia Chow, appears to be leading in recent polling, with a double-digit lead over her main opponent, according to a poll by Liaison Strategies.
Chow's relationship with Ontario Premier Doug Ford has been a subject of interest. At an event, Ford described Chow as doing an "incredible job" and stated they have a "phenomenal relationship." However, his office later clarified that Ford did not endorse Chow and will not endorse any candidate in the Toronto mayoral race.
Other candidates, including Brad Bradford, are also in the running. According to Anthony Furey, there isn't much separating Chow and Bradford. The Toronto mayoral election is set to take place, with Chow holding a healthy lead in recent polling, as per CityNews.
