Toronto police chief Bill Blair’s days may be numbered.
City councillor and vice-chair of the Police Services Board Michael Thompson told the Star in an interview Saturday that if Blair can’t offer the budget cuts city hall needs, then a change in leadership may be required.

“It flies in the face of all of the discussions we have been having with the chief up to this point,” Thompson said. “If the chief is not capable of doing the job then it’s probably time for us to look at some other options and maybe have someone else doing the job.”
Blair could not be reached for comment.
