Toronto’s mayoral race is taking shape as two prominent civic leaders announce their bids to fill the seat left by John Tory.
City councillor Josh Matlow made his long-anticipated entry into the race just hours after former police chief Mark Saunders announced his candidacy.
The two mayoral hopefuls join a field that includes former city councillor and deputy mayor Ana Bailão; former city councillor Giorgio Mammoliti; former Sun columnist Anthony Furey and Gil Peñalosa, Tory’s main challenger in the last election.
