This report recommends that the City of Toronto, as Landlord, enter into a long-term lease and Community Access Agreement with Tempo Basketball Club Inc. (Tempo) to enable development of a new Women's National Basketball Association practice facility with secured year-round community access, plus related public amenities.
\r\n\r\n
The proposed lease of City-owned land to Tempo Basketball Club Inc. would have an initial term of 40 years, with two options to renew for a further 20 years each, and would leverage private investment to deliver substantial community benefits. In addition to secured year-round indoor public recreation access, the first agreement of its kind for a Women's National Basketball Association practice facility, these benefits include a new public park featuring outdoor basketball courts, washrooms and other public realm improvements.
\r\n\r\n
The proposed agreements reflect the City's established practice of leveraging long-term lease arrangements to secure investment in City-owned lands while advancing public benefits. Other examples, such as the OVO Athletic Centre, Lamport Stadium, the Ford Performance Centre, and the recently executed agreement with the Ontario Tennis Association, demonstrate how City real estate assets can support professional and amateur sport, expand community access, and strengthen Toronto's role as a center for high-performance athletics.
\r\n\r\n
The proposal would deliver an approximately 60,000-square-foot Toronto Tempo practice facility including two full-sized indoor basketball courts, training and support spaces and other amenities to support Toronto Tempo operations and City-led recreation programming. Through a Community Access Agreement the City would secure a minimum of 2,260 hours of annual access for public recreation programming including registered and drop-in programs, permit opportunities and seasonal programs such as CampTO, with a focus on women, girls and youth.
\r\n\r\n
The proposal would also accelerate delivery of long-planned parkland at 701 Fleet Street by at least ten years. Tempo would design and construct a new City-owned and operated park on the non-leased portion of the property at no capital cost to the City, including outdoor basketball courts, public washrooms, pathways, seating, landscaping, trees, shade elements, and other public amenities, with the final design to be informed by community and Indigenous engagement.
\r\n\r\n
Tempo would be responsible for all costs associated with the design, construction, financing, operation, maintenance, repair, utilities, and taxes for the practice facility, and would be required to maintain capital repair reserves and report annually on community access. The City would be responsible for future operating costs associated with the new park, public washrooms, and City programming, estimated at $0.8 million annually, to be considered through future budget processes. Beginning in Year 5 of the initial lease term, Tempo would provide additional financial contributions to support City programming and operating needs.
\r\n\r\n
The proposal aligns with Council directed priorities including support for women’s sports facilities, advancing gender equity in sport, facility access and equity, integration with Exhibition Place Master Plan, and park washroom enhancement.
\r\n\r\n
Overall, the proposed agreements would optimize City-owned land to secure a significant private investment, advance a long-standing parkland objective, expand year-round community recreation access, and support the continued growth of professional women’s sport in Toronto.

This report responds to Council direction in EX23.4 by providing an update on current crisis service performance, outlining the five-year pathway for growth, describing actions underway to increase the diversion of eligible 9-1-1 calls, and expanding access to the Toronto Community Crisis Service.
\r\n\r\n
Since launching in 2022, the Toronto Community Crisis Service has become firmly established as Toronto's fourth emergency service, providing a 24/7, community-based response to people experiencing mental health crises. To date, Toronto Community Crisis Service has received nearly 50,000 calls for service through 2-1-1 and 9-1-1, dispatched mobile crisis teams in more than 41,013 cases, completed over 11,659 referrals to health and social services, and resolved most eligible calls diverted from 9-1-1 without police involvement. These results demonstrate growing public confidence in the service and its ability to connect residents to appropriate care while reducing reliance on traditional emergency responses.
\r\n\r\n
Building on these strong outcomes, the City is laying the foundation for significant service growth through enhanced 9-1-1 diversion, integrated dispatch with Toronto Paramedic Services, and expanded referral pathways across healthcare, community and institutional partners including the crisis service on transit initiative launched in 2025.
\r\n\r\n
Analysis completed in 2026 projects annual Toronto Community Crisis Service call volumes from all sources will reach between 25,000 and 29,000 by 2031 through continued demand growth and increasing awareness. The analysis also identified the potential for an additional 20,000 annual calls through enhanced 9-1-1 diversion and new access pathways, bringing long-term demand potential to approximately 45,000 to 50,000 calls per year from all sources by 2031.
\r\n\r\n
These findings reinforce the critical role of Toronto Community Crisis Service within Toronto’s emergency response system. As demand continues to grow, expanding access to Toronto Community Crisis Service is essential to ensure more people experiencing mental health crises receive timely, appropriate, community-based care while reducing pressure on traditional emergency services.

Additional reallocations to project cashflows and project costs are requested where project expenditures exceed the current approved cashflows and project costs. These reallocations will allow Toronto Water to continue to deliver projects within its 10-Year Capital Plan.

In addition, this report requests City Council's authority to amend Toronto Water's Approved 2026 Capital Budget and 2027 to 2035 Capital Plan by converting already approved future year cost estimates contained within the 10-Year Capital Budget and Plan and increasing project costs and cashflow commitments for two approved projects in order to proceed with contract awards, ahead of schedule, in late 2026 or early 2027.

\r\n
In 2025, the City’s spending rates reflect continuous improvement in actual capital delivery, building on budgeting enhancements made since 2023. The capital spending of $5.603 billion with a spending rate of 83.7 percent is up compared to 2024, when capital expenditures were $4.740 billion reflecting a spending rate of 73.8 percent. The spending rate is defined as the actual capital expenditures as a percentage of the full-year budget including in-year budget adjustments and carry forward funding from prior years' unspent budget.
\r\n\r\n
The improved spending rate is largely attributed to the City’s enhanced budget planning processes and focus on capital delivery prioritization, which has enabled City Divisions and Agencies to accelerate project timelines and enhance overall execution. The achievements were made possible by the coordinated efforts of City Council, Divisions, and Agencies.

\r\n
As detailed in Table 1 above, for the 2025 year-end, Tax-Supported Operations experienced a favourable net variance of $108.2 million. The favourable net variance is consistent with expectations considered during the 2026 Budget process and reflects adjustments for Toronto Building whose surplus is allocated to reserves by legislation.
\r\n\r\n
Rate-Supported Programs:
\r\n\r\n
Rate-Supported Programs reported a favourable year-end net variance of $66.1 million.

\r\n
The favourable year-end variance is driven by Toronto Water largely due to the sale of water.
\r\n\r\n
Rate-Supported Programs are funded entirely by user fees that are used to pay for the services provided and the infrastructure to deliver them. Solid Waste Management Services and Toronto Water’s respective year-end surpluses, if any, must be transferred to the Waste Management Reserve Fund and the Wastewater and Water Stabilization Reserves respectively, to finance capital investments and ongoing capital repairs and maintenance. In instances where the Toronto Parking Authority has a surplus, seventy-five percent of the surplus is allocated to the City, with the remaining 25 percent reinvested in Toronto Parking Authority’s capital projects.

\r\n
Capital spending for the first four months of 2026 totaled $1.106 billion, representing 18.4% of the 2026 Approved Capital Budget and an improvement over the five-year historical average of 14.0% for the same period. This stronger-than-historical spending performance is a positive indicator as the City progresses through the fiscal year. By year-end, City Divisions and Agencies are projected to spend $5.417 billion, representing 89.9% of the 2026 Approved Capital Budget.
\r\n\r\n
Impact of Buy Ontario Act on Capital Projects
\r\n\r\n
Despite strong year-end spending projections at the four-month mark, the City may face implementation challenges due to the Buy Ontario Act, which was adopted by City Council through item 2026.CC41.6, and effective for municipalities on May 15, 2026. The Buy Ontario Act's Municipal Buy Ontario Procurement Directive applies to new capital infrastructure procurements, requiring solicitation documents to include a list of Major Goods and Services and suppliers to submit a Domestic Supply Chain Plan identifying whether these goods and services will be sourced from Ontario or Canada. The new procurement requirements may result in delays, affecting project delivery due to extended procurement timelines which could result in deferring project expenditures to later in the year or into future fiscal periods. The primary operational impacts expected to affect project delivery include:
\r\n\r\n
Extended Procurement Timelines: Increased cycle times are anticipated due to the additional time required to identify Major Goods and Services, conduct market research on domestic availability, and allow suppliers sufficient time to prepare comprehensive Domestic Supply Chain Plans.
\r\n\r\n
Potential for Capital Cost Escalation: Giving preference to the highest-scoring Domestic Supply Chain Plans may impact bid prices, with the specific financial impact varying by construction sector and the provincial evaluation approach utilized.
\r\n\r\n
As project delivery progresses throughout the year, City Divisions and Agencies will continue to monitor these impacts and update their spending projections accordingly.

As detailed in Table 1 above, for the four-month period, Tax-Supported Operations experienced an unfavourable net variance of $4.6 million. An unfavourable net variance is projected at year-end of $97.4 million.
\r\n\r\n
It is important to note that the financial information presented is as of April 30, which is a snapshot in time and the year-end projection is based on current and expected future activities as known and anticipated.
\r\n\r\n
Rate-Supported Programs:
\r\nRate-Supported Programs reported a favourable year-to-date net variance of $27.7 million. At year-end, Rate-Supported Programs are projecting a favourable variance of $32.7 million.

\r\n
The favourable year-to-date variance and favourable year-end projection is primarily driven by Toronto Water.
\r\n\r\n
Rate-Supported Programs are funded entirely by user fees that are used to pay for the services provided and the infrastructure to deliver them. Solid Waste Management Services and Toronto Water’s respective year-end surpluses, if any, must be transferred to the Waste Management Reserve Fund and the Wastewater and Water Stabilization Reserves respectively, to finance capital investments and ongoing capital repairs and maintenance. One hundred percent (100%) of Toronto Parking Authority’s surplus is allocated to the City, which is consistent with the Income Sharing Agreement.

This report provides an update of these balances, as well as their related earned revenues and activities for the year ended December 31, 2025.
\r\n\r\n
This report also serves as a statement of development charge (“DC”) balances and activity for 2025, as required by the Development Charges Act, 1997 (DC Act).
\r\n\r\n
Obligatory Reserve Funds
\r\n\r\n
Obligatory reserve funds are monies received from external parties for specific purposes outlined in Provincial legislation or third-party agreements.
\r\n\r\n
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the City’s obligatory reserve funds decreased from $6,726.4 million to $6,597.5 million. The decrease of $128.9 million was primarily driven by net changes in development and planning act, Ontario-Toronto New Deal, and water and wastewater obligatory reserve funds.
\r\n\r\n
DCs continue to represent the largest component of the City’s obligatory reserve funds. DCs are collected from development projects for the purposes of recovering growth-related capital infrastructure costs. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the City’s DC balance decreased from $2,840.2 to $2,466.5 million. The decrease of $373.7 million was primarily driven by monies spent on eligible capital and operating expenditures exceeding DC contributions, due to decreased development activity amid current market conditions.
\r\n\r\n
Reserves and Discretionary Reserve Funds
\r\n\r\n
Reserves and discretionary reserve funds are established by Council to support the financial management and operations of the City, minimize annual tax rate fluctuations, and provide a measure of financial flexibility to address the impact of significant unexpected pressures.
\r\n\r\n
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the City’s reserves and discretionary reserve funds decreased from $5,612.8 million to $5,471.2 million. The decrease of $141.6 million was primarily driven by Council-authorized monies spent on capital infrastructure and operational support. The majority of the City's reserves and discretionary reserve funds balances ($5,131.6 million, or 93.8 percent) are committed to future Council directed activities that include capital and operating expenditures and rate-based activities.
\r\n\r\n
The remaining reserve and discretionary reserve fund balance ($339.6 million, or 6.2 percent) is uncommitted and available to respond to various unanticipated costs, stabilize funding sources, including the tax base, or for emergency purposes such as extreme weather events. The uncommitted amount represents 1.8% of the total 2026 Operating Budget of $18,863.7 million.
\r\n\r\n
There are total commitments and obligations of $44,349.1 million against the $12,068.7 million balance in committed reserves, discretionary reserves and obligatory reserve funds consistent with the approved 10-Year Capital Plan and other requirements and obligations. These commitments and obligations are over three times the current reserve, discretionary reserve fund and obligatory reserve fund balances, requiring continued reserve contributions to support planned expenditures. A further breakdown of the City’s current balances in comparison to planned operating and capital expenditures can be found in Appendix E.

\r\n\r\n
The 2026 levy has remained consistent with the 2025 levy total of $6,992,485 (with a $6,483,956 municipal share and a provincial education share of $508,529). For 2026, the prescribed property tax rates and taxation methodology for railway rights-of-way and hydro corridors remain unchanged from 2025 (as confirmed by attached correspondence from the Province through Ministry of Finance, dated December 10, 2025).
\r\n\r\n
Taxation of railway lands varies across Canada, with some provinces utilizing a per-acre rate for railway lands, and most western provinces using tonnage per linear kilometre rates. In Ontario, per-acre rates are not increased annually and currently, the acreage rates for the City of Toronto are the highest in the province. From 2005 to 2016 railway rates remained static, followed by modest rate increases in 2017 and again in 2018, with no rate increases since. If railway and hydro rates had been indexed to inflation to reflect increases in the Consumer Price Index in each year since 2005, an additional $3,891,024 would be generated from the levy in 2026. This additional levy would be inclusive of the educational portion of Hydro One's levy of approximately $3,601,155.

\r\n\r\n
This report recommends that City Council authorize The 519 Church Street Community Centre Board of Management to establish limited and direct legal advice to clients of the 2SLGBTQ+ community, subject to several risk mitigation and accountability conditions, including eligibility criteria, outlined in Attachment 1 to this report. City Council's authorization would result in an amendment to the scope of programs and services offered by The 519 Church Street Community Centre under the Council-approved Relationship Framework.
\r\n\r\n
Establishing limited legal services within The 519 Church Street Community Centre reflects a community-led, rights-based approach that prioritizes accessibility, trust, and culturally responsive service delivery. The proposed model would allow The 519 Church Street Community Centre staff lawyers and a paralegal to provide limited and direct legal advice and brief services to clients who fall outside the reach of existing legal aid programs, pro bono services, and community legal clinics. This report identifies the benefits of providing specialized legal services for eligible members of the 2SLGBTQ+ community as well as the potential risks of the program identified by City staff, including accountability measures, potential conflicts of interest, and others. The 519 Church Street Community Centre staff lawyers and paralegal, while City employees, are not part of the City's Legal Services Division.

Summary from the report (June 19, 2026) from the Executive Director, Customer Experience Division and the General Manager, Parks and Recreation
\r\n\r\n
The Customer Experience Division, in partnership with Integrated Service Divisions (which include Transportation Services, Solid Waste Management Services, Toronto Water, Municipal Licensing and Standards, Urban Forestry within Environment, Climate and Forestry, and the Parks Branch within Parks and Recreation), continues to strengthen data transparency and enable data-driven decision-making through public dashboards, shared operational data, and quarterly reviews.
\r\n\r\n
As directed by Council, Customer Experience Division is reporting biannually on the ongoing analysis of performance against service standards, including the identification of opportunities for improvement. This report complements individual reports from Integrated Service Divisions identifying how data is used to drive service excellence, with a report from Parks and Recreation, Transportation Services, and Municipal Licensing and Standards brought forward to the May 2026 Service Excellence Committee meeting, and reports from Toronto Water, Solid Waste Management Services, and Urban Forestry within Environment, Climate and Forestry tracking to the July 2026 Service Excellence Committee meeting. Additionally, this report addresses separate direction from Executive Committee to provide the geographic distribution of service requests in parks.
\r\n\r\n
While 311 service requests data provides information on where the public is requesting additional services and visibility into how divisions respond to these requests, it does not capture proactive, planned and longer-term work. As such, this data does not provide insight into the overall performance of a service or division and cannot be used as the only metric to evaluate City service delivery. Integrated Service Divisions rely on internal operational dashboards that integrate both customer demand and planned activities, providing a comprehensive view of service delivery, performance, and improvement priorities.
\r\n\r\n
This report provides a review of the first quarter of 2026 service requests demand and performance. Between January to March 2026, 311 created 158,000 service requests for Integrated Service Divisions and non-integrated divisions and agencies (for example, Court Services and Toronto Public Health), up nearly 20 percent from the 132,000 service requests created in the first quarter of 2025. Most service requests were driven by winter-related demand, with 53 percent of service requests directed to Transportation Services.
\r\n\r\n
Despite the increase in volume, performance improvements were seen in Transportation Services and Municipal Licensing and Standards due to enhancements in service planning and cross-divisional collaboration, especially in the case of 2025/2026 winter operations. The severity of the winter season also impacted performance for Solid Waste Management Services, Toronto Water, and Urban Forestry due to increased service requests volume and the re-assignment of staff to address winter operations. These divisions continue to assess service requests data, alongside other planned work, and explore opportunities for continuous improvement.
\r\n\r\n
This report also provides a geographic analysis of common service requests that have been received by the Parks and Recreation division. While service requests are evident across the city, parks in the downtown core receive the highest density. Staff regularly review request volumes, locations, and response times to identify recurring issues and service hotspots to inform crew deployment, with priority given to high-demand areas and public safety concerns.
\r\n\r\n
Customer Experience Division continues to work with City divisions on enhancing customer insights and service delivery. In partnership with the Technology Services Division, work is underway to establish the Toronto Data Platform, which is a centralized solution for data governance and analytics. As well, Customer Experience Division is working with Revenue Services to identify improvement opportunities in high-demand service lines like tax and utility-related inquiries.

Summary from the report (June 19, 2026) from the General Manager, Toronto Water.
\r\n\r\n
Toronto Water is one of the largest water utilities in North America, providing water, wastewater and stormwater services to millions of residents and businesses, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Service delivery, customer feedback, and operational performance data is used by Toronto Water to monitor and improve customer service, with the focus of this report being service quality and timeliness of service requests managed in partnership with 311.
\r\n\r\n
Toronto Water works closely with 311 which supports the intake, customer communication, and tracking components of the service request process. While 311 serves as the first point of contact for customers Toronto Water's Customer Care Centre triages service requests, validates customer and service information, confirms account and address details, assigns staff to resolve requests, and escalates issues to subject matter experts. Toronto Water uses multiple data sources to improve service delivery, including 311 service request data, internal work management and field force automation systems, customer satisfaction surveys, and operational and regulatory compliance data to monitor service response times, identify trends, inform resource allocation, and support continuous improvement.
\r\n\r\n
Customer experience in Toronto Water is assessed across five key areas: reliability, water quality, service quality, timeliness of service, and rate (cost) for value, with this report focussing specifically on service quality and timeliness as they relate to the division's work with 311 on service requests. The report highlights examples of data-driven improvements (including core services delivered) and future planned work to strengthen how data is used to enhance service quality, timeliness, and overall customer experience.

The first amendment specifies that the Director of Community Recreation, Parks and Recreation is the designate of the General Manager, Parks and Recreation. However, the Director of Community Recreation is already appointed to the board, so if they become the General Manager's designate, the City would not meet the requirement of having five board members appointed by the City. Therefore, a second amendment is required where the appointment of the Director of Community Recreation is changed to the Manager of Community Recreation. This maintains five City appointed members.
\r\n\r\n
Together, these amendments continue to ensure alignment of Board decisions with City recreation programs and strategic priorities, ensures robust financial oversight, and balances the City's and University of Toronto's administrative leadership on the Board.

\r\n
Summary from the Housing Rights Advisory Committee:
Toronto is facing an urgent and growing homelessness and housing crisis that continues to place significant strain on individuals, communities, and existing social housing systems. Encampments, shelter overcapacity, and increasing demand for rent-geared-to-income housing reflect a system under pressure and in need of immediate, coordinated intervention.
\r\n
A key gap in the current system is the lack of appropriate supportive housing for individuals exiting homelessness—particularly those living with complex mental health and addiction challenges. Without adequate supports, many individuals struggle to maintain stable housing, contributing to cycles of eviction, homelessness, and overburdened social housing infrastructure. The City must take action to alleviate strain on shelters and ensure tenants can access homes with appropriate levels of support.
\r\n\r\n
To address these challenges, the City must continue to advance a permanent supportive housing model—built rapidly using prefabricated modular units and paired with wrap-around supports—prioritizing a practical, scalable, and proven solution. When combined with strong intergovernmental funding and inclusive planning, this approach can stabilize vulnerable populations, helping to reduce evictions and returns to homelessness, and break the cycle of housing instability. This can also serve to reduce system pressures and create a pathway toward long-term housing security and community integration.
\r\n\r\n
This approach emphasizes urgency, dignity, and long-term sustainability—ensuring all residents have access to safe, supportive housing and a path toward stability. In order to achieve this, the City must continue to take steps to advocate for increased intergovernmental funding and coordination, prioritize maximum available resources to deliver more supportive housing and ensure those with lived experience of homelessness are meaningfully involved in informing ongoing advancement of the City’s supportive housing programs.

The conference, themed Building the Future Together, brought together elected officials, municipal staff, federal representatives and sector partners from across Canada to discuss shared municipal priorities and emerging challenges.
\r\n\r\n
During the conference, I participated in discussions with municipal leaders, federal officials, policy experts and industry partners on issues critical to cities and communities, including housing, infrastructure, public safety, economic development, climate resilience and municipal finance.
\r\n\r\n
Key discussions focused on the growing pressures municipalities face in responding to population growth, housing affordability, infrastructure demands and the impacts of climate change. Delegates emphasized the importance of strong intergovernmental collaboration and sustained investment in local infrastructure and services. Housing supply and affordability remained central themes, with municipalities sharing innovative approaches to accelerating housing development, addressing homelessness and improving access to affordable housing.
\r\n\r\n
The conference also provided valuable opportunities to exchange ideas with municipal colleagues from across the country on fiscal sustainability, infrastructure renewal, economic competitiveness and approaches to meeting increasing service demands. These conversations reinforced the importance of coordinated municipal advocacy and highlighted best practices that may inform Toronto's ongoing work.
\r\n\r\n
A notable policy discussion focused on strengthening Canada's local information infrastructure and the role of community, Indigenous and campus media in supporting public engagement, emergency communications and local decision-making. Delegates recognized the importance of trusted local communication systems in combating misinformation, strengthening civic participation and enhancing community resilience.
\r\n\r\n
Overall, the conference reinforced the value of collaboration, innovation and advocacy in addressing the complex issues facing municipalities and provided opportunities to advance priorities that are important to the City of Toronto and its residents. The conference also marked FCM's 125th anniversary.

The meeting brought together municipal elected officials, senior staff, and Good Roads leadership from across Ontario to advance the association's advocacy, governance, education, and research priorities.
\r\n\r\n
The Chatham-Kent meeting included meetings of the Executive Committee and several standing committees, including the Public Affairs Committee, Education and Training Committee, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committee, and Research and Product Development Committee. These discussions focused on strengthening Good Roads' support for Ontario municipalities through advocacy, professional development, research initiatives, and organizational leadership.
\r\n\r\n
A component of the meetings was the opportunity to engage directly with local infrastructure, transportation, and community assets within the Municipality of Chatham-Kent. Directors participated in technical and cultural tours. These visits provided valuable perspectives on rural economic development, agricultural transportation needs, community history, and the importance of transportation networks in supporting local economies throughout Ontario.
\r\n\r\n
During the Board of Directors meeting on June 12, members reviewed current organizational priorities and discussed opportunities to continue strengthening municipal transportation infrastructure across the province. The Board reaffirmed its commitment to supporting municipalities through research, advocacy, training, and the sharing of best practices that improve the safety, sustainability, and efficiency of local transportation systems.
\r\n\r\n
As President of Good Roads, I continue to advocate for policies and investments that support municipalities of all sizes while ensuring Toronto remains connected to emerging best practices in transportation planning, asset management, road safety, and infrastructure delivery. Participation in Good Roads provides Toronto with valuable opportunities to collaborate with municipal partners throughout Ontario and to contribute to province-wide discussions on transportation and infrastructure priorities.
\r\n\r\n
I look forward to sharing future updates with Council as Good Roads continues its work on behalf of Ontario municipalities.
\r\n\r\n
The 2027 Good Roads Conference will be held on April 4-7 Conference - Good Roads.

At the same time, big tech and retail giants are capitalizing by monitoring our activity and using the information to extract maximum profit. Surveillance pricing – also known as algorithmic personalized pricing – uses your personal data to change the price of groceries and other items. The goal is simple: to charge the customer as much as possible using personal data to determine what each individual will pay. That means the shelf price of an item can change based on who you are, where you are, or what time it is.
\r\n\r\n
Manitoba introduced legislation to ban this practice. Recently, the federal government committed to explore strengthening privacy protections against this as part of the federal Artificial Intelligence (AI) strategy.
\r\n\r\n
The City of Toronto is taking action to reduce costs for people, especially when it comes to groceries. We’ve expanded school food programs to reach every student by this fall, saving families with two children $900 a year off their grocery bill. In March, Council passed a motion directing City staff to explore municipal levers to bring grocery costs down. That includes supporting independent grocers, developing a municipal grocery pilot that leverages Toronto’s public food terminal, public markets, and community partners in food security, and working with other levels of government to ban anti-competitive land covenants.
\r\n\r\n
There is more we can do. The City of Toronto Act provides authority to regulate for the purpose of consumer protection and the economic well-being of Torontonians. This motion directs staff to explore every legal mechanism within the City of Toronto’s power to ban surveillance pricing on groceries.
\r\n\r\n
The City should address these emerging predatory practices to protect Torontonians and make life more affordable. As the level of government closest to peoples’ daily lives, we cannot ignore these practices or simply wait for the federal or provincial governments. We must do what we can to ensure large companies don’t take advantage of Torontonians.
