Mr. Ford, however, said he’s open to working with whoever wins the June 26 by-election
The Premier previously warned voters not to choose a “lefty” mayor, cautioning that it would be a “disaster” for the city. But on Tuesday, he said he would attempt to work with Ms. Chow, who opinion polls suggest has a wide lead.
“I’ll work with anyone. We go through the democratic process, she gets elected, I’ll work with her. And we’ll sit down and come up with common ground,” he said. “I don’t care about political stripes, I want to do what’s best for the people. And hopefully the mayor will do what’s best for the people and not raise taxes, and attract businesses. That’s what I’m concerned about, keeping taxes low, creating jobs and attracting more businesses,” Mr. Ford said.
“I’m glad to have his vote! I encourage everyone in Toronto who doesn’t want Olivia Chow to be the mayor to vote for me. United, we can stop Olivia Chow,” Mr. Saunders said.
