Last fall I had the pleasure to have former Maple Leafs Sports and Entertainment boss Richard Peddie in studio for a brief chat about his career and leadership style. Next week, Peddie is returning to the studio. This time we’re going to focus on city-building. Specifically, Toronto.
In preparation for this episode, I’m sourcing questions you might have on how Toronto can work better for you and your community.
And Peddie has a question for you.
I have a question for your listeners Would they support a property tax increase to support more day care, after school programs, keeping pools open, more shelter staff, and more. Each 1% would fund a lot of everyday things that would make the city more livable for thousands.
Would you support a property tax increase in Toronto to make this city even greater for everybody?
