What would Christmas be without a few special gifts from Sue-Ann, the Hanukkah fairy, for some of those who purport to run City Hall
By SUE-ANN LEVY
Folks, it's mere hours before jolly old Saint Nick comes down the chimney once again this year! And we suppose even Toronto's city councillors deserve a visit from the big guy -- even though they already handed themselves an early Christmas gift in the form of their fat 8.9% pay hike, which kicks in next week.
But what would Christmas be without a few special gifts for some of those who purport to run City Hall. So in the interests of political correctness, the Hanukkah fairy -- me -- has decided to hand out a few tokens to councillors who've really, really earned them. For the record, these gifts are being provided from the heart, not out of a $53,100 office budget:
- Mayor David Miller: For the mayor who has everything but money to implement his socialist pet projects, His Blondness gets an all-expenses paid trip to Hollywood to appear on the popular new game show, "Deal or No Deal." But instead of host Howie Mandel, the mayor will be treated to a segment featuring Dalton McGuinty with all of the premier's cabinet (I shudder at the thought) posing as the comely assistants holding up the cases full of money.
- Sandra Bussin: To the new speaker of this session, we bequeath 44 copies of the "Emily Post Book of Etiquette for Teenagers" to give to her brood on council, plus a gavel and if that doesn't work, a dinner bell to get their attention. The thought of food always does grab their attention. A crown, scepter (which she can use to swat those who don't listen) and a velvet cloak will also be in the queenly Bussin's goody bag to enhance her image

Sue-Ann's Hannakah Gifts
And I would add a special gift for all the left wing councillors and their social in-activist buddies.........a copy of How To Be A Victim.
