Tory thanked his council colleagues, staff, those in public service, people of Toronto
John Tory wants to be remembered for keeping the city of Toronto stable and moving forward, though the outgoing mayor acknowledged Friday that the scandal that led him to resign will mar his legacy.
“I leave knowing that our city’s best days lie ahead,” Tory said. “I leave with great hopes, high spirits, deep humility and ever deeper gratitude.” “Residents can rest assured that my entire focus at this time is ensuring a smooth transition and continued good governance,” said McKelvie, who reiterated she will not run for mayor.
Tory’s undoing comes just months after he handily won a third-term election bid, promising steady leadership in uncertain times. Criticisms mounted in recent weeks over Tory’s announcement of a proposed $48.3-million increase to the city’s police budget. The boost would bring funding to just over $1.1 billion for 2023, a figure Tory’s critics said was grossly inflated compared to other line items and underfunded social services.
