Toronto Mayoral election

We are having an election in a couple of weeks. Our city councillors, school trustees and Mayor's positions are all up for grabs.
Our current mayor is stepping down, and there appears to be a reactionary backlash to the way the City has been run for the past 8 years.
The backstory on this is that we had a buffoon named Mel Lastman running the City previously- one who seemed to collude with the right wind provincial government and who brought in the army when Toronto was hit by an unprecedented snowstorm that clogged the City up for a few days. His wife was charged with shoplifting while he was in office, he disavowed any knowledge of two out of wedlock sons of his from a extramarital affair (one looks like he could he his clone) and, the prize- when SARS hit Toronto, which overran hospitals with patients and all kinds of panic, the WHO imposed a travel ban to Toronto. Mel had no idea who the WHO was.
David Miller rode in substantially on the shoulders of the Unions in Toronto, and they screwed him for it with a crippling garbage strike. This election will likely be the undoing of the Unions because of it. Because we will get another idiot in office. The frontrunner at this point is Rob Ford- an obese right wing financeer whose platform is to cut costs. Not sure if he has anything resembling a vision for the City, he just wants to deal with finances. Also not sure what happens to the CFO of the City because Ford intends to take the reins.
The anger and venom the man spews- anti bike, anti marathon, anti homeless people. Pro car, pro highway, pro mini council. Just to save money and make it easier for the suburbs to have access to the City.
Why? I ask. If the suburbs are so great why do people need to come downtown at all? For culture- no, there will be none under him. For sports - likely, so long as there are big parking lots downtown because everyone apparently need to drive to games. For fitness- not if he's the symbol that we look up to. He is obese, a blowhard and leans so far to the right that we may end up in Québec.
I support Joe Pantalone because he has a vision, believes in greening the city, stands up for those who society tramples upon and understand municipal politics. He attends sessions and debates, is on committees and has a loyal constituency.
I fear for this City if Ford wins. We already had pro developer Art Eggeleton who allowed the Harbourfront to be overwhelmed with construction blocking the lake and its access by people. We had Lastman who made Toronto a laughing stock.
Let's have someone with vision now.
Vote for Joe Pantalone.
