Extra, Extra: Longing for Toilets and Princes

That, right there, is a toilet, on the desk of Councillor Glenn De Baeremaeker (Ward 38, Scarborough Centre). He brought this very compelling prop to help keep his colleagues riveted as he introduced a motion regarding Toronto’s low-flow toilet rebate, which the Ford administration wants to cut and De Baeremaeker wants to save. Debate over the City’s 2011 budget continues through this week and possibly into next.
