Is Toronto council dysfunctional? Even if we grant the premier some licence for hyperbole — he's earned it — this is not an accurate description of how Toronto council operates. Representing a growing city, Toronto council has lots of business to consider, but most of it is effectively dealt with by city staff or at the committee level, and does not require much if any debate at council. Is Toronto council getting nothing built? Ford has said the only people opposed to the measure are 'a handful of left-wing city councillors.'
