Municipal parties: cast your vote!

Posted on February 1, 2008 by Philip Preville

My column in the February issue of Toronto Life argued that it was time to introduce a party system to city hall. You gotta buy the magazine to read my take, but there are other talented and insightful people besides me writing about it, too. Now the Spacing Wire is polling people on it. Go vote.

Philip Preville

Veteran freelance writer Philip Preville lived much of his life in Montreal and Edmonton before he was lured, like so many Torontonians before him, by the promise of more work and a better living. A National Magazine Award winner and former Canadian Journalism Fellow at the University of Toronto’s Massey College, Preville writes Toronto Life’s politics column. He lives with his wife and one-year-old son in Riverdale, just close enough to the Don Valley Parkway that he can hear it when he steps outside his house—but just far enough away that it doesn’t keep him awake at night. On his office wall hangs a 1938–39 press pass belonging to his grandfather, Elias Gannon, who wrote for the Montreal Star.
