(Toronto) Toronto Mayor John Tory has announced he will seek a third term as leader of Canada’s most populous city.
Posted at 7:14 a.m.
The announcement ends months of speculation over whether he would run for office this fall.
Mr Tory says he is running again because he thinks Toronto deserves “an experienced leader” to lead the city out of the pandemic.
Mr Tory was first elected in 2014 with 40% of the vote, replacing former mayor Rob Ford.
He won his second term with over 60% of the vote.
Ontario’s municipal elections are scheduled for October 24.
