Seniors, low-income people and those dealing with disabilities will be hurt most by the mayor's plan to cut city departments, a group warned at city hall Wednesday. For Mulla, who uses a wheelchair, the math is simple: "Budget cuts equals service cuts equals hardships for people with disabilities." Tory is hoping the budget cuts will allow him to keep his campaign promise of not raising property taxes above the rate of inflation. Rahima Mulla, who uses a wheelchair, said the budget cuts will hurt vulnerable people. Rachel Gray, of the Toronto Food Policy Council, said a tax increase could be the solution to avoid service cuts.
