    Anthony Furey: Now's the time to scrap Toronto's land transfer tax (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Shortly after becoming mayor of Toronto in 2010, Rob Ford tried to reduce the amount of the city’s municipal land transfer tax (LTT). The much-loathed tax placed on the purchase of new homes within city limits had only come into effect a couple years earlier, introduced by then-mayor David Miller. It was a duplicate tax — replicating the Ontario provincial land transfer tax that buyers were already paying. As a councillor, Ford was often one of the few advocates of fiscal sanity. He’d opposed th

    Anthony Furey: Olivia Chow embraces a lawless Toronto (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow has done a decent job sticking to a tight script during her bid for re-election. It’s a script that casts her as a centrist concerned about public safety and affordability — two of the electorate’s main concerns. But at a recent debate she let the mask slip and reminded Toronto voters of her true colours — that she has never been an ally of the police. That’s not something you want to do, especially when we need law and order more than ever. Chow’s re-election slogan is

    Anthony Furey: There isn't much separating Olivia Chow and Brad Bradford (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    What’s the ballot box issue for the Toronto mayoral election? It’s not yet clear. With only six weeks to go, there is no defining matter that has seized the minds of the electorate and driven the debate between candidates. Now there doesn’t necessarily have to be such a topic. Not every election is a referendum on a divisive matter. But there are examples of previous Toronto mayoral elections that have been strongly defined by a single issue. When David Miller was elected mayor in 2003, a defini

    Anthony Furey: Can Toronto rid itself of Mayor Olivia Chow? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    For political observers, the Toronto mayoral election has been going on for months. But for the general public, the race gets underway this week. Voters will cast their ballots in a little over six weeks, deciding whether to give incumbent Mayor Olivia Chow another term or opt for one of the main challengers: Councillor Brad Bradford or former federal minister Chris Alexander, a last-minute addition to the race. Before they can make that decision, however, they will need to consider both Chow’s

    Anthony Furey: Canada should seize the moment and embrace AI data centres (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    One of the most pressing questions facing the Canadian public right now is one that most people will have never been asked before, which is: are we techno-optimists? The answer to that question will influence a number of ballot-box issues in upcoming elections related to artificial intelligence and the data centres that support its expansion. It will also determine whether Canada embraces the coming tidal wave of change brought about by AI enough to have some control over its direction and share
