Mayor John Tory says Torontonians don't want to see "election meddling" — they want to see politicians getting things done. Ontario Premier Doug Ford's latest announcement — that he will force through his plan to slash the size of Toronto city council to 25 wards from 47 just weeks before the civic election by using the constitutional notwithstanding clause to override a judge's ruling — "doesn't help," Tory said. On Monday night, Tory said he met with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to express his concern with Ford's "disconcerting move," but he didn't ask Ottawa to step in. Tory has also called an emergency city council meeting for Thursday. Mayor John Tory joins me to talk about Doug Ford blocking the Judge's decision to not allow the province to cut Toronto's city council.
