Edward Keenan: Toronto’s billion-dollar budget shortfall, and a bad case of tunnel vision
Some — like Josh Matlow — are open about needing to raise taxes to do anything at all. Others, like Ana Bailão saying she’d upload the highways and Brad Bradford saying he’d open contracts to non-union labour, are proposing plans that might free up a couple of hundred million dollars. Mark Saunders is suggesting he’d summon another visit from the Magical Efficiency Fairy who has consistently failed Toronto in the recent past.
So what do you do if you’re the city government? Like a resident struggling to pay the rent, you stretch every dollar and cut back on all luxuries and skip many essentials. And you scale back your ambitions, postponing doing most of the things that would move you to a more stable future.
