When I ran for Mayor of the City of Toronto and declared a vision for FREE transit, defunding the police, ending discrimination, housing, employment and mental health services for all- there were those members of the Canadian press that characterized this as "unhinged". And now..
In actuality, these were sober and sound policy positions informed by data and expertise utilizing an interdisciplinary framework. It relied on intelligence collected from experts in the Academy as well as prisoners and working class people from many, many different backgrounds.
You should know which members of the Canadian press gave fair press coverage to my/your mayoral campaign and heard rather than dismissed a call to defund the police. Follow these Canadian reporters: @lizrenzetti @philldmorgan @jpags @KamilKaramali @KrisReports @Faiza_AminTV
