John Tory is a Canadian politician and businessman who has been serving as the Mayor of Toronto since 2014. He is a member of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario and has also been involved in various other public and private sector roles, including as the CEO of Rogers Communications and the Commissioner of the Canadian Football League.
Toronto Mayor John Tory abruptly resigned late Friday after admitting to an extramarital affair with a 31-year-old former staffer.
The 68-year-old Canadian politician was caught in the messy affair with a woman less than half his age who worked as a mayoral advisor. The woman's name has not been revealed, but their relationship reportedly ignited during the COVID-19 pandemic and was made public by The Toronto Star.
During a news conference, Tory admitted to the betrayal but did not identify his ex-lover, their courtship ended earlier this year. He said the employee has since left City Hall.
It is not clear exactly how long the couple were together, but Troy said it 'ended by mutual consent earlier this year.' He said he is now working with the Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvey to ensure an orderly transition to a new administration.
