Toronto cuts $26 million dollars in spending and still have a 500 to 800 million dollar spending deficit.

7000 people are probably going to lose their jobs, and most of the free services are going away.

20% tax increase is being bounced around

Calgary and other cities are going to have to start keeping a real eye on budget creep.

But the protestors are being unrealistic, just like the idiot protestors in Greece who want the free rides to continue.
