Which one will the voters bless?

A song from an old Hollywood movie set in Rome --- Three Coins in the Fountain is running in my head on the eve of Toronto's mayoral elections: which one will the fountain bless?

We really don't have something like the Fontana di Trevi in Rome so who will I bless with my vote?

A weighty decision to make as I cast my ballot for the next mayor of Toronto tomorrow. Or do I simply emulate what millions of tourists do in Rome as they stand before this beautiful fountain? I'll throw a coin over my shoulder and hope that the city gets the mayor it truly deserves. George Smitherman. Rob Ford. Joe Pantalone. Which one will the voters bless?
