MORAL HIGH GROUND
Rev. Dr. John T. Mathew MississaugaToronto is floundering in red ink. A byelection to pick a new mayor will cost millions. According to Google, John Tory’s net worth is $50 million. He should foot the cost — after all, it is his fault.In the wake of an illicit affair with a young female staffer, followed by his sudden resignation announcement, John Tory might have some regrets about his decision to seek a third term as Toronto’s mayor.
Throughout the controversy surrounding his alleged abuse of power, the issue of a mayoral two-term limit has never been raised. While Tory blew away his closest competitor in last October’s election, his victory can be partly attributed to a personality cult, developed around longer-serving leaders — discouraging potential successors from running. Setting a mayoral two-term limit will help reinforce our democratic values and reduce the threat of growing authoritarianism.
