No one would have foreseen that the indomitable McCallion would become so wildly popular she would remain mayor until 2014. McCallion made Mississauga into a world-class city, and along the way has become one of the best-known and most loved mayors in the world. In her memoir, McCallion will write about her early years as the feisty mayor of a growing city; about her battles with politicians and business leaders; about putting people and her city first; and will put to rest the more challenging stories and crises from her career. The girl from Gaspe landed in the city of Mississauga and earned her nickname "Hurricane." But, as McCallion says, hurricanes destroy, but Hazel McCallion's role was to build a small city on the outskirts of Toronto into a powerful city all its own, as the Globe and Mail deemed it "the City That Hazel Built." Indeed, as the incumbent mayor of Mississauga since 1978, when horses and cows still grazed outside the city's civic centre, Hazel's run as the leader of one of the fastest growing cities in Canada has been nothing short of remarkable. Hurricane Hazel: The Life and Times of Canada's Favourite Mayor tells, in McCallion's own words, the story of her life growing up in Gaspe, where she played hockey as a girl, and moving to Ontario with her family. The book is the story of Hazel's political and business life, with all of its bumps and bruises along the way. Honest, bold, and as straightforward as the woman herself. 538 Requires Boundless App. 600 10 McCallion, Hazel,|d1921- 600 17 McCallion, Hazel,|d1921-|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01947972 650 0 Mayors|zOntario|zMississauga|vBiography. 650 7 Mayors.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01012869 650 7 Politics and government.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01919741 651 0 Mississauga (Ont.)|xPolitics and government. 651 7 Ontario|zMississauga.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01213316 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Biography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423686 710 2 Boundless (Digital media service) |0_aBoundless_(Digital_media_service) 856 40 |uhttps://naper.boundless.baker-taylor.com/ng/view/library /title/0014502372|zFound on Boundless
