Just met a high school student who took time off his March break to come to Chow's rally. Robert Ong, of Northview Heights Secondary School, also went to City Hall to visit Mayor Ford just because he wanted "to see the action."
"I have a personal connection to Olivia," Ong says. "Because I immigrated from the Philippines nine and a half years ago."
Ryerson connection: third-year journalism student Akemi Liyagane is taking photos as a volunteer for Chow's campaign.
That's it for the live blog on Chow's kick-off event, the Rally For A Better City. Thanks for tuning in! If you want more from the mayoral candidates, attend John Tory's campaign kick-off this Wednesday, March 19 at 6:30 p.m. at the Polish Combatants' Hall.
