In the run for election slated for November, later this year, the Greater Toronto will go to polls to elect their mega-city-mayor. The the new city of 2.3 million people, and a government comprising of one mayor, a 56 member council, over 50,000employees and a budget exceeding $6 billion, which is at par with the province of Alberta, is turning out to be a mega-election. the campaign, expected to cost each candidate about a $1 million, has Munyonzwe Hamalengwa, a Zambian immigrant, contesting. This, perhaps, is the turning point in the life of Hamalengwa who came to Canada in October 3, 1977 to study at York University.
