This report recommends the adoption of the Terms of Reference, including mandate and membership, for a new Council Advisory Body to advise Council on the City's progressive realization of the right to adequate housing, for the 2022-2026 term of Council. Background On December 17, 2019, Toronto City Council considered PH11.5 and adopted a revised Housing Charter and the HousingTO 2020-2030 Action Plan ("HousingTO Plan"), in which it committed to the progressive realization of the right to adequate housing. At that time, City Council directed the City Manager to report back on a Housing Commissioner role/function, and that report in July 2022, Item EX34.7, included the findings from 3rd party experts Crean and Maytree, who were engaged by the City Manager. On July 19, 2022, when considering Item EX34.7, City Council directed the City Manager, in consultation with the Deputy City Manager, Community and Social Services and the Executive Director, Housing Secretariat to report to City Council by the end of the first quarter of 2023, with a proposed Terms of Reference for a new Council Advisory Body, to support the City's goals set out in the Toronto Housing Charter and HousingTO Plan f…

On July 19, 2022, Toronto City Council approved EX34.7 – Review and Considerations for a Housing Commissioner Role or Function. Following its approval, Council requested that Ombudsman Toronto consider the May 2022 Maytree Consultant Report ("Crean and Maytree Report"), as well as the June 2022 City Manager’s Report and Recommendations to Council ("City Manager's Report"), and provide Council with recommendations related to the resources and structure required for the office to focus on investigations and reports related to systemic housing discrimination and systemic hurdles in the City of Toronto’s housing planning and service delivery roles, including the consideration of a dedicated Deputy Ombudsman, Housing. This report will outline the structure and identify the resources required to take on the proposed role, should Council provide its approval. Our review, requested by City Council, included an examination of Council’s July 19, 2022 decision, the HousingTO 2020-2030 Action Plan, the Housing Charter, the Crean and Maytree Report, and the City Manager’s Report. The Crean and Maytree Report notes that “a single action, individual or office…

Toronto is one of the fastest growing cities in North America and yet the recent iteration of the Federal Electoral Districts Redistribution removes one of our wards (Don Valley East), which will result in less representation for our constituents. As a Councillor for residents in North York, Ward 18, Willowdale, I strongly object to this plan that could eventually reduce Toronto City Council by one seat.

College Street is one of the busiest corridors for cycling in Toronto, with thousands of cycling trips per day, year-round. Road safety continues to be a primary concern for residents of our wards, with 25 vulnerable road users having been seriously injured on College Street between 2010 and 2020. As the local Councillors who represent the majority of College Street, we’ve heard from our residents that safe options for active transportation on major corridors is needed. At its April 7, 2022 meeting, City Council authorized upgrades to College Street including the installation of separated cycle tracks from Manning Avenue to Bay Street. During public consultation for the College Street Upgrades project, residents expressed interest in extension of the bikeway further west. To create a complete cycling route on College Street, and to complement the existing changes being made between Manning Ave and Bay St, we are proposing a cycling project which would extend bikeways west to Lansdowne Ave. In addition to road safety, creating a complete cycling connection on College Street will help the City meet our TransformTO goals of ensuring that 75% of trips under 5 kilometres are take…

The Integrity Commissioner investigated two complaints about Councillor Josh Matlow made by City staff under the Code of Conduct for Members of Council (the “Code of Conduct”). The first complaint was made by former City Manager Chris Murray about a Tweet from Councillor Matlow on June 16, 2022. Commenting about information he received from the General Manager of Parks, Forestry and Recreation (“PFR”), Councillor Matlow Tweeted: I don't appreciate being lied to. Nor should you. All park bathrooms were not opened by May 24 this year. That's unquestionably untrue. The second complaint was made by then Interim City Manager Tracey Cook. On July 19, 2022, Councillor Matlow Tweeted: I believe the mayor & council chose the very wrong person to serve our city as Acting City Manager. I refuse to ignore Tracey Cook’s decisions to omit facts regarding SmartTrack, and her approach to the violent encampment clearings. I can’t support this choice in good conscience. The investigations were terminated on August 19, 2022 because of the municipal election but recommenced, upon request, after voting day (October 24, 2022). As the complaints both involved Councill…
