Godspeed to the person who has to filter out all the misogynistic messages.

Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante has just tweeted out a phone number for people to reach her directly by text message. In what is clearly an effort to appear more accessible to Montrealers, Plante can now be reached at 514-700-7337.

“Oh yes! You can now reach me by text. Send me a message. 514-700-7337”

This direct-line approach was previously adopted by former Toronto Mayor Rob Ford, who opened up the city hall phone line and often answered himself.
