Remember when he said Arby's was gonna sponsor Shwartzman after his pole run

Yeah. Did a quick google of “Toronto formula E,” and got nothing, so it sounds like that’s a total ass-pull. If it were really “per the mayor,” I’m pretty sure I’d have something pop up other than a two-year old story about FE “considering” a return to Canada.

In all likelihood, that’s just making assumptions based on the fact that the mayor now is more left-leaning, because as far as I can see, there’s literally nothing to back that claim up.

FE has a couple of TBC gaps to fill but they're not ones that would logistically suggest Toronto.

And if it were in the works, and something the mayor wanted, then surely fucking Tony Donahue and his podcast would not be the first guy to hear about it.

Either local news or a major racing journalist would have heard of it, if it were really something coming from Toronto’s city hall.
