We love Rick Mercer and Hazel McCallion here but Mississauga? OMG, please. That place is IMHO a hellhole of 8 lane streets, speeding cars, McMansions on postage stamps, the ugliest city hall complex on the planet, and, the most disgusting of all, no public transit system of its own so that it's massive articulated buses spew Mississauga crud into Toronto air and clog the traffic flow. No wonder the city has no debt.
Hazel's amazing but her city is a horror.
As for Rick Mercer, Ted sees him all the time in elevators at work so I asked him to tell Rick the next time he sees him that I'd like him to run for Prime Minister, and Ted did. Rick promised to oblige. :)
