Olivia Chow, a former NDP parliamentarian and past city councillor, has been elected the next mayor of Toronto.
In Chow, voters have elevated a progressive — and the first woman of colour — to lead Canada’s most populous city, ending more than a decade of conservative rule at city hall.
Her win marks the second time Toronto residents have selected a mayor since October, after former mayor John Tory resigned just a few months into his third term following his admission to an affair with a staffer.
