Description

After The Star revealed many details of Toronto’s secret contract with FIFA for hosting the World Cup, the preparations led off the city council meeting this week. We talk about what we’ve learned and what we still don’t know. Council also passed a resolution to turn surface parking lots into housing, which led to yet another episode of War on the Car rhetoric. Plus, were protests targeting a city councillor this week out of line? What would you like to hear on Toronto Star podcasts? Let us know in this survey and you can enter to win a $100 gift card.
