Toronto’s Hottest Councillor
Posted on May 13th, 2010 –
It’s been years since anything like this was attempted and, let’s be honest, this is a survey that all of Toronto has been waiting far too long for. I understand that you, dear reader, may not know the first thing about most, if not all, of these people and that’s perfectly okay. I might suggest that not knowing some of these folks’ backgrounds may make them sexier. The idea here is to be entirely superficial. :)
I think it’ll be fun to leave the poll open until the fall election when all of these faces may change. Perhaps we can correlate the sexiness factor with incumbency.
In the meantime, pick the three sexiest guys and gals (feel free to vote as much as the system will allow), and I’ll try my best to deliver the good news to the winning two offices — one lady, one gent — when the numbers are all in. “Hottest Toronto Councillor 2010” — that’d look nice on a plaque.

You'd have to be out drinking heavily with Grimesy, as he usually is, to think kes hot.
May 15th, 2010 6:18 am
Ah, a dissenting anonymous voice. I was starting to get the impression that all of Toronto was hot for Mark. :)

GRIMES FOR MAYOR!!

Figures a negative comment would come from "Anonymous"…someone that remains nameless and hides….perhaps in bars…drinking heavily!
I don't drink and think Mr. Grimes is the "sexest councillor" . You either "got it" or you don't…and Mr. Grimes definately "HAS IT". Long live the King!!!!!

Sorry…I do not want to remain nameless and an anonymous under Ward 6….so I will say it again.. MARK GRIMES IS THE SEXEST COUNCILLOR….Long live the King!!!!!!

i love mark

It is quite clear that Mark Grimes filled out all of these comments. I wonder if he was sober when he did this. He is probably the sexiest Santa Claus with the beer belly. But he is more like the Grinch who stole Christmas in Ward 6. Sexy fat guys are usually real unlucky in unemployment lines Mark. That will be where you are on Oct 26, my chubby buddy.

You know, Hilarious Doubter, I suspect that Mr. Grimes did have a hand to play in the popular votes in this contest. However, I look at it like this: I encouraged everyone to vote as many times as the system would allow. Whether this was Mark voting himself, or whether he got his supporters to rally behind him, he's playing fair and square. Every other councillor has the same opportunity. And I decided early on that I would have to leave my personal preferences behind if I were to carry this contest out, so if Mark Grimes wins Sexiest Councillor, so be it! I should point out, however, that TCL-based sexiness in no way guarantees incumbency, so your prediction for the upcoming municipal election may yet pan out.

Mmmmmmmmm gimme some Brian Ashton!

Hilarious doubter; eat those words.Idiot

Ha ha ha….never thought of Mark Grimes as a "hottie" but I do appreciate all the great work he's done in our ward. For that I'll vote his as a hottie, ok?

Thanks for voting, Ward 6 Lifer. Mark Grimes might not be my first choice — Rob Ford wasn't either — but the electorate has spoken! :)

Mark Grimes! Seriously? I must be the hottest man in Canada then………lol! He’s overweight and a lush. You can catch him drinking and driving in his 300c at any hour of the day. Not sure if he still drives that, but when my friend was talking to him on Birmingham just east of Kipling at 10 am in the morning, he had a beer on the go. While driving no less!!

Haha! Well, Ray, I didn’t make the results, and the voting system left plenty of opportunity to cheat (by everyone equally). I wouldn’t have picked Grimes myself, for the record.
