Toronto mayor

Mayor Robert Hood Saunders had resigned in 1948 and Controller McCallum was appointed to succeed him. McCallum faced only Trotskyist Ross Dowson in winning his first full term. Dowson won almost 20% in his run, the best result the perennial candidate would ever receive and the best result for an open Trostkyist in a North American election.
