‘The real ‘shame and embarrassment’ of being a Torontonian’

November 27, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

This is the same Olivia Chow who is the widow of Jack Layton, who led the New Democratic Party from 2003 until his death, and about whom it was revealed that during their marriage he was caught by police in a dingy Chinatown brothel after receiving a hand-job (at the least) from a hooker.

I don’t recall Ms Chow professing her embarrassment about that, just as she did not proclaim her “shame” about being exposed for taking advantage of subsidized housing while she and her husband were making a combined six-figure salary.

But because of the current Toronto mayor’s occasional drug use and his intemperate remarks, now, finally, Olivia Chow has come to learn what it is to be humiliated.
