Former city planner Jennifer Keesmaat has entered the race, promising to secede the city from the rest of the province. So naturally she has my support Smiley 

"Endorsed!" - everyone in Ontario not from Toronto Tongue

Our idiot Premier is absolutely livid! After beginning with a rant against left-wingers, he confirms that he is (a) appealing and (b) reintroducing Bill 5 next week, invoking the notwithstanding clause (s. 33). Not only that, he sends out a warning that he's ready to use the notwithstanding clause again in the future.

This is honestly terrifying that he will set this new precedent.

I assume the stay was because it’s really close to election time.

Does anyone want to make predictions for what wards/ridings Jennifer Keesmaat carries in Toronto?

The only one which I can say for sure she has a very good shot is Toronto-Danforth.

At the very least she'd get Danforth, Parkdale-High Park and Davenport I think (i.e. the 3 ridings with a very strong NDP base).  

I think most provincial Liberals in those places will go for Tory (and a significant number of NDP voters, given that she doesn't seem like the greatest candidate and Tory seems reasonably popular), so I'm not sure Tory doesn't win those two especially if he's ahead by 30 points like polls say.

Here are some tidbits about two mayoral elections in my area (Oxford County) I can share:

Woodstock - This one might be a pretty close one. Incumbent mayor Trevor Birch is being challenged by city councilor Shawn Shapton. The yard signs are about 50/50 here.

Norwich - Tara King, the NDP candidate for Oxford in June's provincial elections, is running here against incumbent Larry Martin. Hopefully, this turns out well (I voted for her in June, obviously) but given that the PCs won here by double digits in June and it's against an incumbent, I'm not sure.

Brampton is too close to call. 76/169 polls are in, and it's:

Patrick Brown 44.83%
Linda Jeffrey 41.98%

Here are the results for Oxford County mayoral races:

Woodstock - Incumbent Trevor Birtch defeats city councilor Shawn Shapton by 1748 votes.

Ingersoll - In a rematch of 2006 and 2010, incumbent Ted Comiskey defeats ex-mayor Paul Holbrough by a 531 vote plurality.

Norwich - Incumbent Larry Martin defeats NDP candidate for Oxford Tara King in an 1874 vote blowout. Sad

East Zorra-Tavistock - Incumbent mayor Donald McKay defeats Deputy Mayor Maureen Ralph by a 363 vote margin.

Blandford-Blenheim - Councilor Mark Peterson easily defeats John Mailloux by 1646 votes.

Tillsonburg - Incumbent Stephen Molnar defeats former deputy mayor Mark Renaud by 976 votes.

Southwest Oxford - David Mayberry was acclaimed.

Zorra - Councilor Marcus Ryan defeats Councilor Doug Matheson. Can't find the margin on this one.
