2003 Election
During the 2003 contest, Davis supported tenant advocacy, the restoration of rent control and gas tax financing for the TTC. Acknowledging that Progressive Conservative governments at the provincial level had opposed all three initiatives, he said, "I differed with my party".
He has worked as a consultant since leaving the council. In 2004, he organized a march in support of police chief Julian Fantino, after it was announced that the deadlocked Toronto Police Services Board would not renew Fantino's contract.

Famous quotes containing the word election:
“In the past, as now, Haiti’s curse has been her politicians. There are still too many men of influence in the country who believe that a national election is a mandate from the people to build themselves a big new house in Petionville and Kenscoff and a trip to Paris.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
