TORONTO, Oct. 29 (UPI) -- Canada's largest city was prepared for the onslaught of ex-Hurricane Sandy's approach after it battered the U.S. Northeast, Toronto Mayor Rob Ford said Monday.
Ford and city emergency officials told a news conference before the storm even made landfall in New Jersey Monday evening city staff and infrastructure were ready for the windy and rainy conditions the post-tropical system would bring in a northward track from New York state.
