Toronto Star: TTC paid executive's friend $50,000
"A senior Toronto Transit Commission official helped his long-time female friend – an amateur photographer – get a plum contract taking photos of public meetings and proposed building sites.Project manager John Cursio recommended Robin Thoen for the job, then personally approved payments of public money to her totalling at least $50,000 over the past year. One of Cursio's grown children worked part-time for Thoen editing photos during this period.""As to the photo contract, she told the Star she has no idea what the pictures are used for. "I don't know what they do with the photos," Thoen said."http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/ttc/article/776171--ttc-paid-executive-s-friend-50-000?bn=1Hopefully this isn't the TTC's new idea of integrity...
