… The last time City Hall went Cup crazy

- May 1st, 2013

Back in 2004, the last time the Toronto Maple Leafs made the playoffs, it didn’t end well for the Buds or Toronto City Council.

Here’s a picture from our Sun archives of then-Mayor David Miller wearing a Philadelphia Flyers jersey to settle a bet on the Leafs. Miller was joined in the photo by Councillors Michael Thompson, David Soknacki, George Mammoliti, Mark Grimes, Bill Saundercook and Norm Kelly.

The caption at the time pointed out despite the Flyers jerseys, as you can see, “underneath they are true Leafs fans.”

Hopefully this playoff run goes a little better for the Leafs – and Toronto city council.

Go Leafs Go!

The city’s top finance bureaucrat is retiring.

Cam Weldon, the City of Toronto’s chief financial officer and deputy city manager, is calling it quits.

Sources tell the Sun a formal announcement about Weldon’s coming retirement will go out Friday.

Weldon was appointed to his current position back in February 2009 after serving as acting deputy city manager and chief financial officer from October 2008.

He’s been working for the city since 2003. Weldon started as the director of accounting services and became city treasurer in 2005.

When he was appointed to CFO in 2009, then-mayor David Miller described Weldon as an “experienced City of Toronto financial manager.”

Mayor Rob Ford has also been complimentary of Weldon’s performance through the last two city budgets.

Before he arrived at the City of Toronto, Weldon spent 20 years at the Regional Municipality of Halton.
