So - since being elected, mayor Rob Ford has cut the budget for public transit in order to give a tax break to car-owners; cancelled a pedestrian bridge that had already been approved and budgeted for; eliminated the bike lanes on a major street; refused to attend Gay Pride because he wants that weekend off; and taken a hard-line approach to graffiti removal that has already destroyed at least one commissioned mural put up by a neighbourhood association.
I guess you can’t accuse him of breaking his campaign promises, or of not running true to form.
