Weekend shootings in Toronto have Bradford and Chow talking tough on crime

Amid a surge in weekend shootings in Toronto, both mayoral candidates Brad Bradford and Olivia Chow are intensifying their focus on crime control strategies. With Bradford, who last placed eighth, gaining momentum in the polls, and Chow defending her record, this spike in violence has become a critical issue. The upcoming election on Oct. 26 means these candidates are now under pressure to address public safety concerns effectively, suggesting a potential shift in how crime will be handled if either wins. This shift could influence future policies and community trust in law enforcement.
