Sir: The “Not Toronto” blitz sounds like something Toronto Mayor Rob Ford might have thought up when he was drinking.
I was born and raised in Toronto and spent most of my life there. I settled in Chatham a couple of years ago, after conducting an extensive search and analysis of housing prices across southern Ontario. If I had witnessed a handful of Chatham’s municipal politicians and hangers-on engaged in a dog and pony show on the main streets of Toronto, it would have had a negative effect on me and might well have convinced me to relocate elsewhere.
In my humble opinion, Chatham-Kent would be better served by taking the high road. We don’t have to act like a bunch of clowns to get our point across. But we do have to use our brains.
