Nothing To Do With The Annex...

... but you may have read about Mary Trapani Hynes' Modest Proposal made during yesterday's marathon session down at Toronto City Hall as people discussed city services and possible budget cuts.

Her speech is short, effective and funny. What more could you ask for?
Cheers,
Vanessa
PS Always amazed at how relevant Swift's A Modest Proposal still is today and how many effective homages are paid to it. I must read more of his stuff! And to think it was written in 1729...
