Is Adam Giambrone Too Young To Be Toronto’s New Mayor? What Is Your Opinion?
I surfed the internet today,
and the latest controversy is that 32-year-old TTC chairman Adam Giambrone wants to become Toronto’s new mayor.
The TTC is the Toronto Transit Commission. Some people argue, the TTC should become a private business.
There are a plethora of reasons why people are upset that Adam Giambrone wants to become the new mayor of Toronto.
The quandary for Giambrone is, how can he prove he is a good candidate if the TTC is currently receiving so much negative press?
For the past week, the Toronto media are splashing photos of TTC employees either sleeping on the job, smoking cigarettes,
or taking unscheduled breaks.
Last month, the TTC raised the cash fare for adults to $3.00 one way. The TTC has a lot of problems. People are upset because the TTC cash fare is more expensive yet the quality of the service is just not good enough.
For example, sometimes people push innocent bystanders in front of trains and sometimes people attempt to commit suicide on the subway lines.
The TTC needs to become more professional and spend the money they receive more wisely.
Ontario’s Premier Dalton McGuinty deserves some of the blame. The media are letting Mc Guinity off the hook. The Liberal government isn’t providing enough funding for the TTC. The TTC is the economic engine of Toronto. Toronto is Canada’s largest and most important city and deserves respect.
When the TTC isn’t running there is chaos in the city. Does anyone remember the previous TTC union strikes?
People need the TTC for work, school, to run errands, shopping, to purchase groceries. The TTC is very important to the people
of Toronto.
The TTC subway line also isn’t open late enough on the weekends. Why does the TTC subway close on 1:30am on a Saturday night
does this make sense?
I hate paying $70 to $100 dollars for cab fare just to get home if I plan to stay out late on the weekends.
Well Toronto, here is your chance, we have the opportunity to force Adam Giambrone to make serious changes to the TTC.
First, some people say Adam Giambrone is far too young and doesn’t have the life experience necessary to run a big city such as Toronto. Is this ageist?
Why does someone have to be forty, fifty or sixty years old to be the mayor of Toronto?
Some folks on the internet are saying that the Toronto Transit Commission is in shambles.
I have to admit, the washrooms at Finch, Bloor, Kipling, and Union stations are disgusting!
There is so much trash in the TTC’s men’s washrooms.
Here is a plethora of crap I noticed last week at various TTC subway stations.
The bad smell inside the men’s washrooms is abhorrent. Next, I noticed the lack of soap, garbage scattered everywhere, smashed pop bottles, trashy old newspapers on the ground, and graffiti smeared on the walls!
The TTC must do something about their unsafe and dirty washrooms this is totally unacceptable!
The TTC needs to scrub the washrooms clean and make sure the washrooms are clean for human consumption!
I am serious! I do not mean a little cleaning here and there! The TTC men’s washrooms need a complete make over!
I wonder what tourists think when they use the TTC facilities?
The TTC has the money they need to make the washrooms clean. I don’t know maybe the TTC needs to pay someone to watch over the washrooms? I am serious,
the men’s washrooms are aborrent they are not clean!
Another incendiary issue is, some TTC needs to get tough with their employees. The unscheduled cigarette and coffee breaks are upsetting the public.
The citizens of Toronto are speaking up about the terrible customer service. Some people are complaining they say the TTC workers are rude and inconsiderate to the public.
However, I have also spoken to TTC employees and they say the citizens of Toronto are part of the problem.
Some TTC employees say the people of Toronto are rude they
spit, are verbally, and physically abuse to the TTC workers.
I think the TTC workers do need to be protected from violent or mentally disturbed customers.
Since Giambrone is the TTC chairman he needs to do a better job.
If Giambrone can’t fix the TTC how can he possibly fix the problems in Canada’s largest city Toronto?
What do you think? Would you vote for Adam Giambrone or not? Let me know thanks!

Never mind Adam
We`d like to know if George Smitherman is too fiscally irresponsible,too misinformed and too devoid of conscience to be Toronto`s new Mayor?

“…the disclosure could reasonably be expected to be injurious to the financial interests of the Government of Ontario,…”
He voted for this nonsense when he was a Liberal Cabinet Minister.

The Province is in shambles thanks in part to George Smitherman(Remember EHealth?)
Why pick on Adam?
You can teach a young dog new tricks.
But we think it`s time for the old dog(Smitherman) to retire from Politics.
Hasn`t he caused enough trouble already?
Hello concerned citizens your argument is valid and does have some veracity.
George Smitherman, the gay candidate for the mayor of Toronto also deserves some more critical attention as well.
I was focusing my attention on Adam because he is also the chairman of the TTC. The TTC affects my life and millions of Toronto citizens lives.
The TTC deserves the press because more can be done. Adam is the chairman of the TTC he has to do a better job. How can Adam obtain the respect of the public if the TTC is not running properly? The TTC has received a lot of negative press in the past few weeks and I feel the criticisms are valid.
It is not his age that is a concern, it is his obvious lack of maturity.
When confronted with the truth of his behaviour he had the opportunity to come clean about courting two women at the same time. He had the chance to be a man about it and tell the truth, instead he chose to be a liar and obfuscate.
This in my opinion leaves him unfit for any political office.
