Karen StintzKaren Stintz is a Toronto city councillor representing one of the two EglintonLawrence wards. A single child she grew up in North York. After receiving a BA from University of Western Ontario she obtained a Master's of Science in Journalism from Boston University and worked briefly as a journalist. Returning to school she got a Master's of Public Administration from Queen's University and got a job in the Ontario Ministry of Health. In the lead up to the 2003 Toronto election longtime incumbent Anne Johnston was unpopular over a controversial development project. No challenger was immediately obvious, and the local ratepayer organization went so far to put out an ad looking for a good candidate. Stintz had no political experience, and had only lived in the are for three years. With the backing of the ratepayer groups Stintz defeated the longtime incumbent in a close race. She is seen as one of the right wing members of council and backed John Tory for mayor. External link Stintz, Karen
