Rocco Rossi was the first in line to file his papers to run for mayor of Toronto. In his subsequent press conference, he billed himself as the "big, bald" mayoral candidate who wanted to cut the mayor"s salary and sell off Toronto Hydro. Despite the splashy debut, a number of Torontonians don"t know much about the east end-raised Rossi, who once kayaked 490 km from Toronto to Ottawa to raise money for the Heart and Stroke Foundation, of which he was formerly the CEO. Here he takes me through what parts of the city he once lived in, his favourite parts of the city, and, of course, what he would do for the city of Toronto.
