  • Toronto City Council Enviro Report Card 2010-2014
    TORONTO CITY COUNCIL ENVIRO REPORT CARD 2010-2014 TORONTO ENVIRONMENTAL ALLIANCE • JUNE 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY hortly after the 2010 municipal election, TEA released a report noting that a majority of elected SCouncillors had committed to building a greener city. We were right but not in the way we expected to be. Councillors showed their commitment by protecting important green programs and services from being cut and had to put building a greener city on hold. We had hoped the 2010-14 term of City Council would lead to significant advancement of 6 priority green actions TEA had outlined as crucial to building a greener city. Sadly, we’ve seen little - if any - advancement in these actions. This is because much of the last 4 years has been spent by a slim majority of Councillors defending existing environmental policies and services from being cut or eliminated by the Mayor and his supporters; programs such as Community Environment Days, TTC service and tree canopy maintenance. Only in rare instances was Council proactive. For example, taking the next steps to grow the Greenbelt into Toronto; calling for an environmental assessment of Line 9. This report card does not evaluate individual Council members on their collective inaction in meeting the 2010 priorities because it is almost impossible to objectively grade individual Council members on this. Rather, it evaluates Council members on how they voted on key environmental issues. The results are interesting: • Average Grade: C+ • The Mayor failed and had the worst score. • 17 Councillors got A+ • 16 Councillors got F • 9 Councillors got between A and D In the end, the 2010-14 Council term can be best described as a battle between those who wanted to preserve green programs and those who wanted to dismantle them.

  • City Hall a TERM in REVIEW
    City Hall A TERM IN REVIEW August 2018 1 As Toronto City Council has wrapped up its legislative term in anticipation of the upcoming Municipal Election in October, the Municipal Affairs Team at Sussex Strategy Group felt it was timely to reflect on the active 2014 - 2018 Council term. Below are some highlights from over the last four years, as well as some key insights into continued discussions and debates to be expected into the 2018 - 2022 term. Sussex has broken down the accomplishments and memorable moments into general trends of the term’s entirety. 2 Full Speed Ahead PUBLIC TRANSIT & TRANSPORTATION 3 Right out of the gate in early 2015, the by 2031, including approval of a SmartTrack accelerated SmartTrack work plan was concept with six new stations, an Eglinton reviewed and funded to address matters of West LRT, one-stop Scarborough subway project financing, design, service expectations extension, Eglinton East LRT, and a Relief Line. and implementation schedule over the course of the term. This was a key campaign promise of Mayor John Tory and properly aligned with one of the key themes of the term – getting Torontonians moving…out of their cars and onto transit. Getting Torontonians moving on the road safely and out of gridlock was another aspect of the 2014-2018 term. At the onset, Council approved measures to mitigate traffic disruptions. Next, Council focused its attention to speeding on residential streets and in school zones, a result of increased usage of cars trying to bypass congested arterial roads and routes. Staff reported on possible mitigation efforts in 2015.

  • (In)Equity in Active Transportation Planning
    (In)Equity in Active Transportation Planning: Toronto’s Overlooked Inner Suburbs by Mohammed Mohith Supervised by Professor Liette Gilbert A Major Paper submitted to the Faculty of Environmental Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Environmental Studies, York University Toronto, Ontario, Canada July 2019 Abstract Active transportation modes in North America are often accounted as ‘white strips of gentrification’ as advocacy for walking and bicycle infrastructure is characterized as a manifestation of privilege (Mirk, 2009). Such concerns usually arise from complex cultural, historical and political currents influencing urban politics and policies. Policies and investments make the urban amenities and facilities easier or harder to access and have a huge impact on the lives of the city’s population depending on their social and spatial status. Unequal distribution of transportation investments due to lack of fair access to participate in the planning process is not uncommon in Canadian cities -- and in almost all cases lead to inequality in mobility benefits. Decisions of transit infrastructure priorities in Toronto historically and politically tend to favour affluent and influential communities. The goals, preferences and strategies of active transportation planning for Toronto, therefore, is worth a critical discussion and engagement. If the benefits of active transportation investments are to be fairly distributed across the city and among all users, equity will have to be comprehensively addressed in the planning process. The goal of this research paper is to evaluate Toronto’s current initiatives in active transportation planning in terms of social and spatial equities and to bring forward discrepancies in practices to outline relevant strategic directions.

  • March 29, 2018 Mayor John Tory Office of the Mayor City Hall, 2Nd Floor 100 Queen St. W. Toronto, on M5H 2N2 Realizing Toronto Y
    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.
