Mayoral candidate and long-time councillor Giorgio Mammoliti officially launched his campaign bid last night with a $250.00-a-head fundraising dinner. In his speech he outlined a number of policy planks, including asking the province to take over the TTC and turning portions of Yonge Street into a pedestrian-only mall.
He also took square aim at at the city’s bureaucracy:
“Enough of the fat. We need a leaner government that serves the people better,” he said. “All city employees should be forewarned: Under my leadership no job is safe and pink slips will be issued. We will build the city infrastructure and staff it properly where it is needed instead of filling cubicles with paper-pushers downtown.”
