Good, but still way to close for comfort for a whackjob who wants to spinoff Toronto Water so it can later be privatized. Like the UK hasn't been clear enough on what a disaster that policy was.

Not sure what happened but the preliminary results show a 13pt difference between Chow and Bradford, which is a clear win when polls were suggesting a neck-and-neck race.

Polls are just a manipulation tactic anyway. They exist to stop a % from voting because they think it'll go "their way".
