URGENT: Olivia Chow is ahead by less than three points. I'm putting the truck on Bathurst

Canada's worst mayor, Olivia Chow, could actually lose. I never thought I'd write that sentence. The newest poll, out today, has her ahead of Brad Bradford by less than three points: 40.8% to 38.3%. The margin of error is 3.1 points. In plain English, it's a tie.

So I've done something I've never done before. I personally registered with the City of Toronto as a third-party advertiser.

Not Rebel News. Me, Ezra Levant, as a private citizen. And I'm renting Rebel's big billboard truck to run ads against Olivia Chow, up and down Bathurst Street every day until the polls close on October 26.

Let me tell you why I'm doing this.

Olivia Chow never earned the mayor's chair. She got it almost as a consolation prize after Jack Layton died, riding on his coattails. And what has she done with it? It's what she hasn't done that stands out.

She hasn't stopped the crime wave. She hasn't stopped the tax hikes. She hasn't stopped parks and playgrounds from being turned into homeless camps and open-air drug scenes. All while she gallivants from parade to party to festival, in costume after costume, like a court jester while the city falls apart.

Here's the moment that told me everything. At a community meeting about the home-invasion robberies sweeping Toronto, a Toronto police constable told residents, and I'm quoting him exactly: "To prevent the possibility of being attacked in your home, leave your fobs at your front door."

Toronto Police Constable Marco Ricciardi suggests leaving your car keys by the front door so the armed home invaders don’t hurt you… “They’re breaking into your home to steal your car, they don’t want anything else.”

Leave your car keys by the door so the robbers don't have to ransack your house to find them. That is the official advice in Olivia Chow's Toronto. The clip is in my video. Watch it and tell me I'm exaggerating.

And then there's the Jewish community.

Toronto used to be famous as a hospitable city where the Jewish community was at the heart of business and culture.

Now it's known as the antisemitic capital of North America. Olivia Chow even skipped the mayoral debate on antisemitism last month. She stays away from the non-partisan Walk with Israel, where 50,000 Torontonians march. And she has nothing to say about the pro-Hamas street gangs who block Toronto's roads with their "prayer" protests, something that wouldn't be tolerated in Saudi Arabia or the United Arab Emirates. Those gangs are on her side, and she's on theirs.

You don't have to be Jewish to want her gone. You don't have to be a ferocious right-winger, either. You just have to look around.

Now, here's the math. The Jewish community in Toronto has historically voted Liberal, or centre-left. It's not a natural Rebel News audience. But these are the voters most likely to switch, because they're the ones Olivia Chow has most openly abandoned.

If I can remind a few thousand of them what's been done to their own city, and move them to anyone but Chow, that could close a three-point gap.

I know this works, because we've done it before. In the 2025 federal election, we ran the same truck through York Centre, where the Liberal MP Ya'ara Saks had been photographed with Mahmoud Abbas, the boss of the Palestinian Authority. We started at Bathurst and Sheppard. She lost her seat.

So here's the plan — but there's a catch.

The law caps a third-party advertiser at $25,000. That's all I'm allowed to raise and spend, and every dollar of it goes to keeping that truck rolling for the final two weeks. The city's rules, not mine: you have to live in Ontario to chip in, and the most any one person can give is $1,200. If you're outside Ontario, I'm sorry, you can't give to this one, but you can forward this email to a friend in Toronto, and that's worth almost as much.

One more thing. Olivia Chow's police have pulled the truck over a few times in the past three months. I expect they'll try again. I'll be ready for it, and I'll let you know the moment it happens.

Normally I'd say there's no hope. Toronto is a left-of-centre city and the incumbent usually wins. But I've been in this business a long time and I've never seen her this vulnerable. A few thousand votes on Bathurst Street could be the difference.

Canada's worst mayor could actually lose. The newest poll has Olivia Chow ahead of Brad Bradford by 40.8 per cent to 38.3 per cent, inside the margin of error — in plain English, a statistical tie. So I've done something I've never done before: I personally registered as a third-party advertiser, and I'm renting Rebel's billboard truck to run ads against Olivia Chow up and down Bathurst Street every day until the polls close on October 26.

The truck costs about $2,000 a day, and the law caps me at $25,000 — every dollar goes to keeping it rolling for the final two weeks. The city's rules, not mine: you have to live in Ontario to chip in, and the most any one person can give is $1,200.
