Excerpt:
On Wednesday September 29, 2010, Business for the Arts in partnership with ArtsVote Toronto, the Toronto Arts Council, The Art Gallery of Ontario and Manifesto are presenting The Toronto Mayoral Arts Debate. The four candidates who are currently confirmed are: Joe Pantalone, Rocco Rossi, George Smitherman and Sarah Thomson. We are anticipating that Rob Ford will also participate.
ArtsVote is hosting a poll to choose an additional Mayoral candidate to participate in the Debate.
The poll is now open for voting and will stay open until midnight on Thursday September 23.
The poll is in the right-hand sidebar of the artsvotetoronto.ca homepage.
I think Rocco Achempong deserves a seat – he is the natural 6th candidate!
The one candidate whose life is the arts should be included!
PLease add Keith Cole to the lineup for the debate! He deserves a listen!
