Original Toronto Star caption: Out of office for the first time in 16 years, Scarborough Controller Karl Mallette sits back for a moment after clearing out his desk yesterday. As chairman of the Toronto Transit Commission, controller and a member of Metro Council, Mallette gained a tough reputation. People either love me or hate me, there's no in-between, he said while he packed up such souvenirs as ribbon-cutting scissors.
