QUOTED: Giorgio Mammoliti on Karen Stintz’s (politically!) salacious behaviour

—The one and only councillor Giorgio Mammoliti, speaking after yesterday’s transit vote, about TTC chair Karen Stintz, the woman who basically pushed to have herself fired and then got her job right back in the same day. Mammoliti’s allusion to the “orange side” is a nice retreat from his usual full on red baiting, but it’s still pretty silly (almost as silly as the Sun claiming Mammoliti “had nothing negative to say about Stintz”). The newly constituted TTC board, along with the councillors who bucked Rob Ford yesterday, is hardly a left-wing splinter group. As for getting chewed up and spit out, we suspect Stintz isn’t worried. These days, she seems to be doing most of the chewing up and spitting out. [Toronto Sun]
