Councillor Joe Mihevc Toronto City Hall St. Paul's West Ward 21 September 9th, 2015 Dear Colleagues, Re: Invitation to a public meeting informing Torontonians how they may assist Syrian refugees: I would like to invite you to join Councillor Joe Cressy (Ward 20, Trinity-Spadina), Debbie Douglas, Executive Director of OCASI (Ontario Council of Agencies Serving Immigrants), Ratna Omidvar, (Chair), Executive Director, Global Diversity Exchange, community agencies and me for a public meeting about the Syrian refugee crisis. The purpose of this meeting is to provide Torontonians with information and tangible action plans around how to assist people impacted by the ongoing refugee crisis. We have been hearing that, while several Canadians have already opened their homes, many more do not know how to get involved with the various initiatives currently taking place in Toronto or where to obtain the necessary information. The meeting will be held on: Date: Sunday, September 27th Time: 2:00pm – 4:00pm Venue: City Hall, Council Chambers and Members' Lounge, 100 Queen Street West We will hear from Ms. Douglas, Ms. Omidvar and yourself about how Torontonians can become more involved in supporting families and individuals through sponsorship and community support. There will also be an opportunity for your organization to have a display table along with relevant material. Kindly distribute this invitation to others who may be interested in participating as agencies or attending the meeting as potential refugee sponsors. If you would like to participate in this event or would like additional information about this meeting, please contact my office at 416.392.0208 or [email protected]. I hope you are able to join us and that together we can promote the good refugee settlement work that you are doing.

Can Toronto Be Run Like a Business? Observations on the First Two Years of the Ford Mayoralty in Torontoi
Can Toronto be Run Like a Business? Observations on the First Two Years of the Ford Mayoralty in Torontoi. Richard Stren Cities Centre University of Toronto Prepared for Presentation at the CPSA Annual Conference, Edmonton, Alberta June, 2012 Draft Only. No Citations or References without Express Consent of the Author. Mayoral candidate Rob Ford’s speech at the National Ethnic Press and Media Council of Canada (August 9, 2010): I come from the private sector, where my father started a labeling company….I’m proud to say that with the help of my brothers we have expanded to three locations in New Jersey, Chicago and Rexdale, and we now employ approximately 300 people….What I have seen in the last ten years is very disturbing at City Hall. I’ve seen taxes go up and services go down… In the private sector, we deliver, it’s very simple. The first rule is, the customer is always right. The second rule is, repeat the first rule…In politics we should take the exact same attitude….The taxpayer is the boss of all the civil servants….I really take a business approach to politics…in that customer service is lacking at city hall. …Customer service is number one. Downloaded on May 10, 2012 at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOBotCHFRZE Video interview with Rob Ford on the day before the 2010 election: …[my brother and I have] run my father’s business that he started in 1962. We’ve expanded into Chicago and New Jersey. That’s the business approach I want to take to running the city.

March 29, 2018 Mayor John Tory Office of the Mayor City Hall, 2nd Floor 100 Queen St. W. Toronto, ON M5H 2N2 Realizing Toronto’s Opportunity to Redevelop Downsview Your Worship, On behalf of the Ontario Society of Professional Engineers (OSPE), I am writing to request your support for the redevelopment of the Downsview lands: an incredible, multi-billion dollar opportunity for the city of Toronto to increase its supply of housing, attract investment and jobs and cement itself as a global centre for engineering innovation. As you are aware, Bombardier Aerospace announced their intention to relocate their operations at Downsview. For Toronto, this move presents a tremendous prospect for innovation and urban renewal that is unparalleled in modern history. Spanning an impressive 375-acres of prime development lands, Toronto’s opportunity at Downsview supersedes previous urban development success stories such as New York’s Hudson Yards and London’s Canary Wharf (24 and 97-acres respectively). Not only is its sheer size unprecedented—Downsview is also shovel-ready, presenting Toronto with a turn-key public project that complements existing infrastructure. Unlike most urban renewal projects around the globe, this development is able to monopolize on existing public infrastructure stock, thereby avoiding the time and resource costs typically associated with the construction of new service and transit linkages. The Downsview lands are situated at the epicentre of three world-class universities and benefits from exceptional connections to existing subway, rail, and highway transportation infrastructure. Developing Downsview can improve the flow and functionality of Toronto’s transit network. The development of the Downsview lands promises to improve ridership and the efficiency of the entire transit network by encouraging two-way passenger flows.
