\nCouncillor Doug Ford wants to rally the people of Toronto to save the mayor\u2019s subway plans.<\/p>\n
The Save our Subways campaign, or S.O.S. as he is calling it, is still in its infancy, but the Etobicoke councillor is predicting it will sway the McGuinty government to see things the mayor\u2019s way \u2013 just as the voters of Oakville managed to halt construction on a power plant near their homes in the runup to this fall\u2019s provincial election.<\/p>\n
Dear Councillor Ford, let me remind you, we already have a Subway campaign. It\u2019s called the $5 Dollar Footlong<\/B>. Or maybe that is what you mean, you want all Torontonians to contribute $5 to build a foot of the Sheppard Subway system. Hey, that is not a bad idea after all. Just don’t call it a tax. Mayor Ford is dead set against that name.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s do it. Start the campaign \u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n
