Joe Mihevc--former Toronto, ON councilor--walks through the last three months of the Toronto council, in which the province suddenly and unilaterally cut the number of council seats in the middle of a municipal election. He explains the "Hunger Games" goal of the premier and the two types of approaches to being a councillor under a shrunken body.
