Congrats Toronto, proud of this city right now. Olivia's double digit lead over Bradford is truly amazing, especially since the polls were too close for comfort. I'm extra proud of the strong grassroots efforts that made this happen

Hilariously, Bradford's own ward went 2:1 for Olivia, making him the biggest loser of the night 😂

Fwiw, Olivia's victory speech kinda does the same thing a bit. I don't particularly care for it, but at least her heart is in the right place

    Olivia has always been cheesy and I kind of like that about her. She's embracing the haters instead of pushing her way through them, and that's the reason she's managed to get progressive policies passed in the first place. And hopefully more stuff with the newly elected council!
