'I am deeply sorry': WATCH John Tory's full statement as he resigns as mayor of Toronto
John Tory is stepping down as mayor of Toronto after having a relationship with a member of his office staff during the pandemic.
During the pandemic, I developed a relationship with an employee in my office in a way that did not meet the standards to which I hold myself as Mayor and as a family man.During the course of our relationship sometime ago, the employee decided to pursue employment outside City Hall and secured a job elsewhere.It came at a time when Barb, my wife of 40-plus years and I were enduring many lengthy periods apart while I carried out my responsibilities during the pandemic.
While I deeply regret having to step away from a job I love, in a city I love even more, I believe in my heart it is best to fully commit myself to the work required to repair these most important relationships.
