&lt;p&gt;City council will vote  on a package of &lt;b&gt;election reforms&lt;/b&gt; on Dec. 2, reports the &lt;b&gt;&lt;a title=&quot;Toronto Star&quot; href=&quot;http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/article/730492--restrict-campaign-donations-city-told&quot; id=&quot;bma-&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Toronto Star&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. They include a measure to ban candidates for mayor or councillor if they have received corporate or union donations. If passed, it will have a significant impact on the city&#039;s municipal election in the fall of 2010.&amp;nbsp; &lt;b&gt;&lt;a title=&quot;The Toronto Star&quot; href=&quot;http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/toronto/toronto-looks-to-ban-corporate-union-donations/article1366890/&quot; id=&quot;v0xz&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;The Toronto Star&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt; says in another article that two of the expected candidates for mayor, John Tory and George Smitherman, who both come from the world of provincial politics, &amp;quot;have relied on such donations in the past.&amp;quot; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mayor David Miller has expressed outrage the the &lt;b&gt;voters lists&lt;/b&gt; used by the City in municipal elections favours home owners over tenants. According to the &lt;b&gt;&lt;a title=&quot;Globe and Mail&quot; href=&quot;http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/toronto/mayor-criticizes-mpacs-voters-lists-for-disenfranchising-apartment-dwellers/article1376437/&quot; id=&quot;ciw4&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Globe and Mail&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, the city cannot legally compile its own voters lists but must rely on the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC), which often overlooks tenants when monitoring properties across the province.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to the &lt;b&gt;&lt;a title=&quot;Globe and Mail&quot; href=&quot;http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/deputy-mayor-pantalone-plans-run-for-top-job/article1381323/&quot; id=&quot;g&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Globe and Mail&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, councillor  &lt;b&gt;Jo&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;e Pantalone&lt;/b&gt; will run for Mayor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;It was recently revealed that the &lt;b&gt;Toronto Port Authority&lt;/b&gt; (TPA) had minutes to a 2008 board meeting retro-actively rewritten. &lt;a title=&quot;The Toronto  Star&quot; id=&quot;qah0&quot; href=&quot;http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/article/722028--why-were-port-authority-board-minutes-altered&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Toronto Star&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; said &amp;ldquo;the changes could have been to blur the trail of Conservative government meddling in board affairs and to change parts that were controversial.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
