Tony O‘Donohue, at 45, is an experienced and- able businessman and politician. He and his wife Aldona and their
son Danny, 16, live on Avenue •Road in the heart of Toronto (“We like to be in the middle of things,’’, says Tony).
. It is because of this feeling, (because of his family, he is

election campaign, '0‘Donohue believes one
rases
albove
the others — the curbing of ever-increasing municipal costs
and taxes.
O‘Donohue’s approach to this issue is direct and decisive:
There is to be no increase in city expenditures next year
— “Not a dime in ‘79.”
In 1971, the city’s total spending totalled approximately
$93 million. In 1978, that figure has risen to approximately
$196 million
a whopping increase of $103 million in eight
years.
Clearly the time has come for the much-needed leadership
to bring this serious situation. . . the kind of leadership with
the courage and strength to wield a sharp knife to cut costs.
There ris only one candidate able to provide that needed
leadership. It’s time for Tony.

Tony O‘Donohue, at 45, is an experienced and- able businessman and politician. He and his wife Aldona and their
son Danny, 16, live on Avenue •Road in the heart of Toronto (“We like to be in the middle of things,’’, says Tony).
. It is because of this feeling, (because of his family, he is
riot only now a candidate for mayor, but an extremely con
cerned citizen. Although there will be many issues in the
election campaign, '0‘Donohue believes one
rases
albove
the others — the curbing of ever-increasing municipal costs
and taxes.
O‘Donohue’s approach to this issue is direct and decisive:
There is to be no increase in city expenditures next year
— “Not a dime in ‘79.”
In 1971, the city’s total spending totalled approximately
$93 million. In 1978, that figure has risen to approximately
$196 million
a whopping increase of $103 million in eight
years.
Clearly the time has come for the much-needed leadership
to bring this serious situation. . . the kind of leadership with
the courage and strength to wield a sharp knife to cut costs.
There ris only one candidate able to provide that needed
leadership. It’s time for Tony.
