That's what happens when you get a mayor who leans way left. But Olivia
Chow is up for re-election this fall and it looks like the opposition is coalescing against Brad Bradford so that she doesn't get re-elected via vote-splitting.

Just to give you some background, the previous mayor resigned very early
in his 3rd or 4th term over a scandal because of an affair he had with a
city employee so they had a by-election and Chow won, mostly due to name recognition, against many lesser known candidates. This is her first re-election battle. This time, they are hoping to unify the opposition
into a single candidate so the choice is very clear.

I don't know much about Bradford but he's got to be better than Chow. If
he wins, we should see less of this woke nonsense in the city of Toronto.

The language police?

They actually have language police in Quebec!

As I understand it, business owners face at least fines if someone
enters a store and is NOT greeted in French: say "hi" or "good morning" instead of "bonjour" or equivalent and you're in trouble. Put up a sign
that doesn't have the French at least three times as large as any
English and you're in trouble.

I don't know if they actually drive police cars or dress like police
officers though. I've never lived in Quebec and have not spent much time there.

I just asked ChatGPT about this and paste it here:

========================================================================================================
Short answer: **no, they are not police**, they **do not wear police uniforms**, **do not carry guns**, and **cannot arrest people**. The
nickname ?language police? is informal and a bit misleading.

Here?s how it actually works.

## Who the so-called ?language police? really are

The people you?re thinking of work for the
**Office qu‚b‚cois de la langue fran‡aise (OQLF)**.

* They are **civil servants**, not police officers.
* The term **?language police?** is a nickname used mostly by English
speakers and media; it is **not an official designation**. ([DCHP-3][1])
* **They have no police powers**?meaning they cannot arrest people or
enforce criminal law. ([Wikipedia][2])

### Do they wear uniforms or drive police cars?

No.

* They typically look like **ordinary government inspectors**?similar to health inspectors or by-law officers.
* They **do not wear police uniforms**, **carry weapons**, or **drive
marked police cars**.
* When they visit businesses, they usually do so as inspectors or investigators responding to complaints.

Think of them as closer to **municipal inspectors** than police officers.

## What laws they enforce

They enforce Quebec?s **Charter of the French Language** (oft
