Toronto Council meets today!

Councillor Matlow moves to amend part of Bradford's motion to reference the TTC MoU on shared responsibilities.
"When I first heard about Councillor Bradford's motion, with all due respect, I thought it was a political stunt," Matlow admits, but he's come to see it as important.
"Whether this came from Olivia Chow or Brad Bradford or anybody else who wants to run for mayor, I think we need to be together on focusing on our common priorities," says Matlow. He urges colleagues to support Bradford's motion. Peace in our time.

Holyday says he supports more cops on the subway but NOT platform edge doors. "They're so exorbitantly expensive, it's a trade-off on other really important things that need to be done on the TTC. We have to think of the highest and best use of money."
