Thoughts and personal accounts from your former mayor
Hey Guys, I’m sitting in my west end home right now, preparing for a great long weekend. The weather is supposed to be great.

Hello Friends, Just a quick update — I’m still here! Seems I accidentally knocked this website offline for the past few days.

Hey Folks, Just updating you guys. I’m currently in my Etobicoke backyard having a great old fashioned BBQ on my end. I went to Brunos Fine Foods on Dundas West and Royal York Road to pick up a bunch of steaks for me and the guys. My wife is on vacation currently so its just… Continue reading BBQ + Buddies + Beers
Hey Toronto! Your old pal here. I was just sitting in my office, brainstorming with my administrative staff and we were toying with the idea of combining cookies and cream ice cream with jelly doughnuts (mixing it in a blender even).
