TORONTONIANS CELEBRATE DECISION NOT TO RAISE TAXES

As council announces a typhoon of service cuts, Torontonians rejoice in the knowledge that they will not be facing tax increases any time soon. Councilors who voted down Mayor David Miller’s proposed tax increases are pleased that they have spared their constituents the hardships of an increased tax burden that would have seriously impacted quality of life in the city. Dodging the dreaded tax bullet will ensure that Toronto will not have to succumb to the same improvements in amenities that other world-class cities have had to endure. With the closing of pools, community centres, and cut-backs in litter collection, children frolic in potholes and sort garbage in parks for summertime fun! Yay Toronto City Council- you guys are the best!!
