		However, despite Sewell's wrong headed, ill advised, quixotic drive to end up victorious, it was a low PC vote as well as a low Sewell vote plus age that ultimately removed the father of amalgamation from the field.
		Sewell is the sentimental favourite but can only win if he can convince voters that he can win and that a Sewell vote isn't a wasted vote (this will depend on whether or not Sewell can blanket the riding with signs and knock on more doors than the opposition).
		Sewell still can't be discounted--a lot of experts are still projecting him as a likely winner (which probably causes a bit of wishful-thinking resentment among partisan politicos).

	John Sewell: Land Use Planning Initiatives (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		John Sewell’s first foray into the mysteries of land use planning began in 1966 in the Trefann Court Urban Renewal Area in downtown Toronto, where he worked with local residents and businessmen to oppose a city-sponsored scheme to clear the area and replace it with new public housing and an industrial park.
		John was involved in the formative discussions to create a new neighbourhood downtown, the St. Lawrence Neighbourhood, and was heavily involved in voicing the basic planning principles underlying this development including: mixed uses; a grid street pattern; building forms that reflected the existing city; and so forth.
		John’s specific focus in this report was in respect to the creation of employment strategies to ensure that the new community would not be a bedroom community but would create enough jobs for those living there so that commuting would not be necessary.

	John Sewell: Current Political Initiatives (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		John continued to work with residents helping them to redevelop a relocation plan, adopted by TCHC, and to proceed with redevelopment in phases so that 75 units in the south part of the project would remain until new replacement housing had been built in the north section of the project.
		John worked with the residents throughout 2002 and 2003 to ensure that they had some kind of voice in the plan of redevelopment, although TCHC has done much to exclude them.
		John believes that this argument is wrong-headed and that the underlying objection is really to the current development form and the way Regent Park has been managed.
