Mayor Rob Ford’s budget chief makes fake housing proposal to anger left-wingers on Toronto council »

From The Toronto Star:

Councillor Mike Del Grande, Mayor Rob Ford’s budget chief, says he does not actually support the incendiary housing proposal he made last week.

Why, then, did he make it? Strictly to anger council’s lefties, he told the Toronto Sun.

[…]

Del Grande, known for his gruff demeanor and blunt talk, is a proud penny-pincher who sometimes brings a piggy bank to council meetings to remind his colleagues of the city’s fiscal challenges. But his fake proposal comes at a cost: the committee voted to have the city’s top bureaucrat, city manager Joe Pennachetti, write a report on it.
