    I am a white Canadian, that automatically qualifies me as rascist when i disagree.

    calling people racist, misogynist etc. are words to shut people up

    Canada is toast. Started when the Liberals changed the Canadian anthem. It’s all been downhill from there.

    Total waste of time and resources. City council needs to focus on much more important issues.

    Old demented Shelley Carrol is way past her best before date. Most of the Toronto City Council should be booted yesterday.

    calling anyone racist, is racist period and a foul way to shut down any debate

    Money IS an issue. A big one. When the mayor spends her days complaining that the city is broke and begging the province and feds for money, a million bucks could have been far better used for something that is actually needed.

    What a waste of taxpayer dollars and a moronic name that conjures up thoughts of coffee.

    Congratulations toronto, you sure know how to elect ridiculously woke politicians.

    Why isn't counsel listening to the people. That is who they work for

    I saw some of the presentation of the petition and it was beyond infuriating. I am in Brad Bradford’s riding. He has got it right. No-one wanted this except the knuckleheads at City Hall. I wouldn’t be surprised if this new signage gets damaged again and again in an act of civil disobedience.

    Lots of people with mental health issues seem to be put into positions of power. What the hell is going on? So many people who can’t keep their heads on straight. It becomes a ridiculous goal that doesn’t serve any real purpose in our lives today. Let’s talk about getting more doctors, getting support for business, get food prices down, not renaming a street.

    Why is calling someone a racist in public not a smear worthy of a slander lawsuit?
