Ward 2 Councillor Stephen Holyday says he is considering running for mayor of Toronto.
"Over the last several weeks, I have heard from many people expressing support in asking me to run for Mayor of Toronto. I am worried that there are no candidates that offer the kind of leadership and resolve we need to improve our City's deteriorating conditions, who are prepared to make the tough and common sense decisions to make it happen, and who will be outspoken when special interest groups work against achieving it," Holyday said in a statement on Tuesday.
"I am considering a run for Mayor because everyone notices the problems worsening throughout our City and I want to do something about it." Holyday was first elected to city council in 2014 and was appointed by former Mayor John Tory as deputy mayor in 2017 and 2018., Tory appointed him to oversee a new file - red tape reduction and customer service. Holyday is also the chair of the audit committee.
