City's controversial lease deal heats up
Another Councillor Candidate has taken the battle to the Boardwalk Cafe owned by T(h)uggs Inc. Candidate Martin Gladstone held a press conference at the contentious cafe to discuss the questionable East Beaches restaurant deal when he was confronted by the owner George Foulidis. Will Mr Gladstone be the victim of a lawsuit like fellow candidate Bruce Baker? Foulidis should get Bussin to do the suing. After all taxpayers are on the hook for Councillors' legal costs.
As for candidates in other wards. Here's some advice: find a controversy relating to your incumbent, hold a press conference at the site and you'll get the media coverage you desire. It's worked for two candidates in Ward 32 and it worked for Rob Davis in Ward 15.
In the spirit of the 2010 Toronto elections I propose a Campaign for Change. This page is about posting the public misdeeds of Toronto's incumbent councillors to hold them accountable for past actions. Furthermore, I invite challengers to incumbents to come make their case for election this coming October 25th. Let the Takedown begin!

The Bussin Cavalry comes to Ward 32 Councillor's rescue
Boardwalk Cafe owner suing Ward 32 council candidate
Well this seems like a nicely timed diversion on the part of a Bussin ally. Long-time critic of the City's sole source deal with Tuggs Inc for the East Beaches restaurant Bruce Baker is being sued by George Foulidis the owner of Tuggs. Regardless of whether the report by Deputy Manager Sue Cork paints a rosier picture of the 20 year deal that was struck, the process by which Tuggs Inc was awarded the contract was flawed. Foulidis has donated money to Bussin in the past. Bussin goes to bat for the Foulidises and 'Mom and Pop' get another 20 year monopoly on prime real estate.
Please show your support to Candidate Baker as Bussin allies try to derail his campaign.
