Raving has always been political and it’s time to do our civic duty.

Raving has always been political and it’s time to do our civic duty.

Toronto, advanced voting stations are open and now is the best time to get out there and cast your vote to stop a corrupt, ineffective, unethical and incompetent politician from his attempt at becoming the Mayor of the city we all love and are proud to live in, the change Toronto needs right now is the removal of Brad Bradford from city hall permanently.

We don’t need a politician under four ethics investigations holding a job in the mayors office, who also thinks that quiet Toronto neighborhoods are good places for Ai data centres as he stated in his last televised debate, plus him constantly yelling over a woman during televised debates while she’s talking is disgusting, especially when she’s talking to him about flat out lies shes catching him making.

It shows he’s misogynistic, unprofessional, immature, dishonest, disrespectful, refuses to accept accountability for his lies and can’t stand woman, that isn’t the way a Mayor should act, it isn’t how an adult should act, it isn’t how a well raised child should act but that’s what he’s done over and over.

Also you all need to know that Brad’s wife’s company “Rockport” owns over 20,000 rental properties in Toronto, driving up our cost of living and they help to make the affordability problem of life in our city worse!!

Companies like that who charge sky high rents over the thousands of properties they hoard contribute to the homeless problem and make life difficult for families, seniors and everyone else struggling to put food on the table every day after paying rent to greedy property speculators and slumlords like Brad and his current wife.

While you’re here consider the following…

Many decades ago when the conservative Mayor in power (same brand as Brad Bradford) tried to shut down anything rave and nightlife related in our city only two politicians stood up for our community and attended the iDance rally that I and others helped organize, those two politicians that stood up for our community way back in August of 2000 were Olivia Chow and her late husband Jack Layton.

THREE YEARS ago, before Olivia Chow became mayor while Bradly Bradford was a city council member working directly for John Tory:

City Hall was broke and short $1.8 billion in its budget because of John Tory and Brad Bradford.
No new affordable housing was being built.
Refugees were sleeping in the streets. Parks like Allan Gardens and Lampert Stadium were filled with homeless folk.
911 wait times over national average all the time. 45 secs or a min.
Scarb RT derailed and line 2 subway cars are over their life span. Brad was on the board of directors and he had the TTC raise fares and cut services.

Then AFTER the honourable Olivia Chow became our Mayor…

The city restored its financial health with its credit rating going up for the first time in 23 years.
Gardiner and DVP uploaded, freed up billions in investments to parks, roads and transit.

Olivia Chow implemented a renoviction By-Law to make it harder to unfairly evict renters.
She cracked down on slumlords, and put the city's worst one in jail, something Brad and his wife are afraid of happening to them.

She doubled funding to homeowners to prevent basement flooding.
Hired 127 Traffic Agents to keep Toronto moving.
Secured $1.5 billion to cut development charges and build more homes.

More than doubled the number of RentSafe Officers.
Brought in colour-coded RentSafe signs for apartment buildings.
Launched and expanded the Free Air Conditioner program for thousands of renters.
Funded and built the Scarborough Busway.
Filled 814,984 potholes.
Secured $$ and broke ground on the Waterfront LRT.
Sped up development approvals by 80%.
Landed $471m through the Federal Housing Accelerator Fund to build housing.

Putting side guards on all City heavy trucks to protect cyclists.
Brought in a Chief Congestion Officer to get people moving.
Landed $73 million to speed up Gardiner construction by 18 months.
Excellent partnership with the federal and provincial government leading to $15 billion investments to the city.

100,000 people will have new homes thanks to her and a good number of them affordable.
City is saving people $1200 a year on school food programs for kids and no TTC fare increase.
Transit riders have faster, more reliable services.
TTC has historical investments.
Slow zones in subways are disappearing.
55 New subway cars for line 2 and waterfront rapid transit happening soon.

The waiting time for your 911 calls to be answered are 80 percent faster. Way below the national average of 15 secs.
Expanded City's homemaker and nursing service for seniors.

-
Olivia has also invested significant resources in combating anti-semitism, set up bubble zones around places of worship and met with community leaders to implement changes to make communities and worshippers safer, something that Brad Bradford FLAT OUT VOTED AGAINST.
Brad has never cared about the Jewish community until he thought he could use them as useful idiots during this election run.
-

She also launched the first ever Rat Response Plan for the city.
Olivia put crisis workers on the subway to keep everyone safe.

Shootings have dropped by 26 percent.
Crime is DOWN.
Refugees are housed appropriately so they can establish themselves faster.

97 percent of city parks have no camps in them.
Allan Garden, Lamport Stadium and local parks are being used by local residents again.

Voting for Brad will be a huge step back, it would lead to massive cuts to services and the only people who will benefit is Brad and his wife’s company Rockport where they own THOUSANDS of properties all over the city and charge huge sums for rent, they make our housing affordability and cost of living problem worse and they are known to not fix or maintain their properties for their tenants.

The tax freeze he keeps talking about is self serving, this manchild has no civic pride, he doesn’t care about the citizens who live in our city he only wants to help his wife’s company make even more money than they already are.

A simple search for “Brad Bradford Rockport Holdings” will shed light on the situation regarding the one I just referenced and you’ll also find information on the many other different ongoing ethics investigations he’s currently under.

Brad has accepted endorsements from several different racists, homophobes, genocide supporters, white nationalists and neo nazis so far, namely Doc Von Lichenberg, Avi Glina, Catherine Swift, Adam Zivo, Warren Kinsella and others…

Brad also has pictures of himself with the IDF flag, a known terrorist organization currently committing a genocide in the Middle East.

He also has pictures of several Islamophobic and homophobic people attending a fundraising event they hosted for him that he attended and happily spoke at while appearing incredibly intoxicated on something or several things, video and pictures are readily available online.

A vote for Brad is a vote for hatred, corruption and a vote against Toronto’s way of life.

Voting for Olivia Chow is the only way Toronto keeps moving forward, voting for Brad Slumlord would be the same as putting a full and smelly diaper on a freshly bathed new born baby, that isn’t progress, it doesn’t make sense but that’s what he wants you to vote for.

If you love our multicultural city, your family members and your communities and the freedom we have to dance outdoors and indoors I implore you to vote for the honourable Olivia Chow. ❤️
