Thank
you,
please
be
seated
welcome
to
the
resumption
of
councils
first
meeting.
It
is
I
hope,
you'll
indulge
me
both
with
respect
to
the
technology
and
not
having
obviously
sat
here
before,
except
for
a
brief
time
yesterday,
in
terms
of
being
able
to
conduct
this
as
well
as
I
can
I
will
say
for
the
benefit
of
those
who
are
connected
to
the
Internet
or
otherwise
watching
the
clerk

Council
deputy
mayor
Menon
Wang.
B
Yes,
thank
you,
mr.
mayor
that
the
report
from
meeting
one
of
the
striking
committee
be
presented
for
consideration.
I
I'll,
speak
briefly
to
that.
Mr.
mayor
this
is
this
has
been
a
very
difficult
task
for
the
mayor's
office
and
the
transition
team.
It
always
is
I've
been.
This
is
I've
done
this
on
I've
been
involved
in
this
on
a
number
of
occasions,
and
and
what
I
can
tell
tell
you
mr.
B
mayor,
is
that
ninety
ninety
percent
of
members
of
councils
choices
for
first
or
second
pick
on
standing
committees
has
been
satisfied
over
90
percent,
and
that
means
that
there
are
a
few
people,
ten
percent
who
didn't
get
their
first
and
second
picks
so
90
percents,
a
good
number
and
I
think
mr.
Mary.
It
is
also
consistent
with
previous
councils
and
that
and
within
this
process,
similar
to
other
processes,
we
have
tried-
and
you
have
tried
your
best
to
accommodate
everybody's
wishes.
B
It's
a
difficult
process,
because
certain
committees
are
more
interesting
or
more
valuable
to
certain
members
of
council
for
various
reasons,
because
their
constituents
are
concerned
about
it.
They
have
a
special
interest,
maybe
that
they
been
on
that
committee.
Before
and
they
want
to
stay
on
that
committee,
but
I
think
that
it
was
your
your
interest,
mr.
B
Mara,
to
reflect
a
certain
tone
to
bring
new
people
on,
to
have
some
experience,
people
to
move
some
of
those
experience,
people
to
other
places
and
to
look
at
people's
talent,
skills
and
abilities
and
balance
it
along
with
with
their
wishes
and
and
you,
and
we
came
up
with
this
and
and
so
not
everybody
was
satisfied.
Mr.
mayor
I
can
tell
you
that
that
back
in
2003,
after
David
Miller
was
first
elected,
I
was
put
on
the
community
and
neighborhood
Services
Committee.
Not
my
first
pick,
not
my
not
even
my
second
pick.
B
It
wasn't
a
pick
that
I
was
happy
with,
but
you
know
I
recognize
the
fact
that
the
the
political
realities
of
the
day
that
and
that
you
can't
always
you
can't
always
get
what
you
want
and
so
I
sat
on
that
committee
for
two
years
until
I
I
got
another
committee
pick,
but
I
think
we've
done
our
best
I
think
we've
done
our
best
and
I
hope.
Members
of
council
will
support
the
striking
committee
recommendations.
B
A
Thank
You
counselor
I
am
this
is
not
a
debatable
amendable
or
motion
that
is
subject
to
question.
So
I'll
simply
ask
the
question
all
those
in
favor
of
the
motion
to
put
the
report
to
put
the
report
to
it
to
introduce
the
report.
That's
what
I
meant
we're
gonna
get
to
the
debate
in
a
moment.
I
have
to
go
through
declarations
of
interest
first
and
then
we're
gonna.
Come
back
to
look
at
the
two
sections
of
the
report
carried.
A
All
right
are
there
any
declarations
of
interest,
and
if
there
are,
please
indicate
the
item
number
and
the
nature
of
the
interest
hearing,
none
we'll
move
on
members.
The
striking
committee
report
is
now
before
us.
There
are
two
items
in
the
report.
Does
anyone
wish
to
hold
item
one
all
right?
Thank
you.
C
A
Like
to
declare
an
interest
in
that,
thank
you
any
other
declarations
of
interest.
All
right.
The
striking
committee
report
is
in
front
of
us.
There
are
two
items
in
the
report.
Did
I,
hear,
I,
think
councillor
Denzil,
Minh
and
Wong,
and
deputy
mayor
Denzil,
Minh
and
Wang
indicated
his
desire
to
hold
item
one
all
right
and
does
anyone
wish
to
hold
item
two?
A
It's
this
case.
It's
the
schedule
of
the
meetings
all
right,
we're
gonna
hold
that
as
well
all
right,
so
we'll
now
proceed
to
consider
these
matters
in
order
and
first
it
is
appropriate
to
receive
questions
that
people
have
on
item
number
one
to
do
with
the
strike
and
committee
report.

Deanna
I
apologize
just
briefly.
Mr.
mr.
mayor
I
would
ask
members
of
council
to
support
the
striking
committee
recommendations
and
I've
I've
described.
Why
I've
spoken
about
that?
I
won't
repeat
that
what
I
what
I
have
done
is
I
have
walked
the
floor,
a
second
floor
and
tried
to
speak
to
most
council
members
to
find
out
if
they
had
any
changes
that
they
wanted
to
to
make
these
motions
reflect
those
changes.
I
can
support.
I
can
support
those
motions
and
I
would
I
would
recommend
that
all
members
of
council
support
those
changes.
B
They're
there
they're
consensual
between
the
the
two
councillors
who
have
switched
out
and
we've
tried
to
accommodate
as
much
as
possible
once
again
their
wishes
in
making
these
changes.
There
are
some
changes
that
were
recommended
to
me
today,
as
I
was
talking
to
members
of
council
that
were
a
little
bit
more
controversial
and
we
weren't
able
to
find
the
agreement.
That's
always
the
case,
but
but
I
would
advise
members
of
council
to
and
urge
them
to
support
those
motions
and
the
only
other
motion,
because
this
was
done
very
quickly
and
last
minute.
B
G
C
I'd
like
to
move
that
the
appointment
to
the
committee
of
adjustment
nominating
panel
be
amended
by
deleting
the
name
councillor
Georgia
mammal
IDI
and
inserting
the
name
councillor
Kristyn
wong-tam
mr.
mayor,
there's
very
little.
That's
more
important
in
this
chamber
than
our
integrity,
both
individually
and
collectively,
as
reluctant
as
I,
am
to
create
controversy
on
the
first
meeting
of
council,
there's,
probably
no
better
time
to
set
our
integrity
bar
and
I
would
like
to
refer
members
of
council
to
two
reports
which
they
would
certainly
be
familiar
with.
C
One
is
from
the
Office
of
the
Ombudsman
dated
September
2012,
an
investigation
into
the
administration
of
the
public
appointments
policy
and
more
recent
one
dated
June
24
2014
integrity.
Commissioner
report
on
violation
of
code
of
conduct,
counselor
mammal
et
I,
believe
that
there
are
very
few
members
of
council
who
believe
that
this
motion
that
I'm
making
is
not
appropriate.
This
vote
will
show
who
will
vote
according
to
what
they
believe
and
who
would
prefer
to
look
the
other
way.
Thank
you.

I
Much
mr.
mayor,
congratulations
on
your
election.
Congratulations
to
us
all
for
our
election.
I
am
rising
to
speak
in
support
of
the
slate
that
I
I
will
support
one
or
two
of
or
several
of
the
amendments
and
I
applaud.
The
folks
who,
who
put
this
put
this
together.
I
do
want
to
in
this
first
speech,
though,
try
to
set
a
a
positive
tone
as
well
as
the
challenge
that
I
think
is
before
us
during
the
election.
I
I
certainly
heard
a
lot
of
folks
a
lot
of
folks,
saying
I'm
voting
for
mayor
Tory
or
at
that
time,
candidate,
Tory
and
I'm
voting
for
you
to
mimic,
because
I
think
we
want
both
sides
of
that
of
that
dynamic
in
the
city
Toronto
represented
at
at
City,
Council
and
I
think
that
that
happened
really
frankly
in
many
areas
across
the
city,
I
think
one
of
the
things
that
I
read
in
this
last
election
is
this:
people
want
I'll
call
it
the
war
to
be
over.
They
want
the
war
to
be
over.
I
Between
this
more
often
than
not
artificial
configuration
of
left
center
right
between
the
people
who
support
soft
services
and
hard
services,
people
who
watch
the
dollar
and
people
who
watch
the
programs
they
want
us
to
have
a
more
integrative
vision
of
how
we
function
here
at
City,
Hall
I
take
to
heart
your
comments.
Yesterday,
mayor
Tory,
at
at
the
inauguration,
I
thought
they
were
wonderful
and
now
I
think
we
have
to
mean
it.
If
we
mean
it
that
we
are
one
city
where
we
need
to
work
together.
I
That
has
to
be
reflected
in
more
of
the
decisions
that
we
make
in
supporting
this
I'm
supporting
it,
because
I
want
to
start
out
in
a
graceful
manner
in
this
new
council,
but
I
think
I.
Think
today
the
Toronto
Star
hit
it
right.
There
is
a
gap
between
this
document
and
the
action
of
the
striking
committee
and
I'm,
not
sure
whether
that's
the
mayor
or
the
mayor
staff
or
the
transition
team.
In
fact,
they
don't
want
to
know.
I
I
know
that
we
need
to
do
better
if
we're
going
to
stay
true
to
the
vision
that
the
mayor
presented
yesterday
and
that's
going
to
require
all
of
us
to
stretch
a
bit.
You
know
in
the
last
terminal,
council
I
actually
thought
that
the
last
two
years
we
did
a
pretty
good
job
of
that
crossing.
The
aisle
uptown
downtown
all
the
different
barriers
that
we
put
between
us.
I
We
did
it
because
we
knew
we
had
to,
and
so
I
come
to
this
council
with
all
kinds
of
friendships
and
relationships
that
I
didn't
have
before
and
I
think
we
want
to
continue
that
so,
while
I'll
accept
this
today,
I
hope
that
the
mayor
and
his
staff,
this
is
not
Parliament,
either
provincial
or
federal.
All
right.
When
I
look
at
those
orders
of
I
see
war,
that's
all
I
see
is
war
done
on
a
political
footing.
This
is
about
consensus.
I
Building
city
government
has
always
been
about
consensus
building
and
then
sometimes
a
little
war,
and
we
need
to
get
back
to
that.
That's
what
I
think.
Well,
that's
that's
firmly.
What
I
do
believe
that
consensus
building
has
a
strong,
much
stronger
value
at
the
local
level
than
it
does
in
other
orders
of
government,
so
we're
all
gonna
have
to
learn
that
we're
all
gonna
have
to
stretch
I'm
here
for
this,
but
I
do
hope
that
the
mayor's
office
takes
this.
To
heart,
recognizes
that
that
there
there
are
partners
here.
I
J
J
Try
and
fearmonger
those
of
you
that
are
on
this
chamber
to
believe
something.
That's
just
not
there
the
reality.
The
situation
on
both
reports
that
he
brings
out,
even
though
on
one
of
them
I
can't
speak
to
because
I've
taken
the
matter
to
court,
is
that
I
mr.
mayor
want
the
courts
to
determine
whether
or
not
one
of
those
reports
is
accurate
or
they're.
J
Not
one
of
those
reports
should
have
been
processed
through
this
chamber
and
whether
or
not
in
fact,
the
punishment
that
was
given
to
me
by
this
council
chamber
is
in
fact
an
order,
and
that's
all
I'm
going
to
say
on
the
matter,
but
councillor
Fillion,
standing
up
and
parading
and
trying
to
fear
monger
trying
to
pull
at
the
heartstrings
of
people
that
perhaps
are
new
in
this
chamber.
I
would
say
to
those
people
if
you
really
want
to
start
a
particular
session
in
a
different
way,
then
I'd
suggest
that
you
put
the
past
behind.
J
You
I
suggest
that
you
look
at
doing
that.
If
you
want
to
keep
the
war
council
fillion
going,
if
you
want
to
keep
the
language
going,
if
you
want
to
keep
it
going,
counselor
Marivic
and
councillor
Fillion
in
terms
of
your
particular
remarks
in
the
past,
then
keep
doing
what
you're
doing
I
plan
on
moving
forward
I
plan
on
representing
my
community
that
way,
I
always
have
with
the
appointments
that
are
being
suggested
in
this
particular
chamber.
J
If
you're
gonna
take
one
appointment
away
from
me,
because
you
believe
that
something
was
in
order,
then
take
them
all
away,
don't
just
pick
and
choose
on
what
you
want
to
take
away
from
me
and
the
other
part
of
the
equation
was
the
Ombudsman
report
that
that
he
mentioned
as
well.
Mr.
mayor
I
believe
and
to
this
date,
like
I
believed
when
that
report
came
out,
the
Ombudsman
should
not
be
political.
That's
a
part
of
the
mandate.
J
If
you
look
at
the
mandate,
it
talks
about
politics,
you
wouldn't
want
her
mentioning
the
politics
in
your
office,
mr.
mayor
or
any
one
of
us
in
this
particular
chamber.
It's
not
her
mandate
to
do
that
and
I
will
continue
to
fight
for
that.
I
believed,
as
I
still
do
today,
that
that
particular
report
was
too
political,
that,
in
fact
it
should
have
been
talking
about
the
bureaucracy
and
not
the
politicians,
and
that
that's
what
the
report
was
about.
So
mr.
mayor
I
want
to
start
fresh
with
a
new
term.
J
I
want
to
be
the
voice
for
my
community
when
it
comes
to
property
taxes
and
the
subway
versus
LRT
and
all
the
other
things
that
perhaps
some
people
don't
want
me
to
be
saying.
But
the
courts
judge
on
whether
or
not
that
one
report
is
accurate
and
should
have
been
here.
I,
don't
think
44
members
should
be
doing
it
and
punishing
me,
like
counselor
Fillion
is
trying
to
do
by
an
appointment,
one
appointment
out
of
a
number
of
them
that
this
this
committee
is
recommending
for
me,
and
so
I
say
that
wholeheartedly
to
you.
Mr.
J
K
Mr.
mayor
and
congratulations
on
your
election
and
I
think
all
44
of
us
look
forward
to
working
with
you
to
make
this
a
spectacular
City
that
we
live
in
even
more
spectacular
than
it
already
is.
My
motion
is
very
simple
one.
If
the
clerk's
habit
that
the
appointments
to
the
Scarborough
hospital
community
advisory
council
be
amended
by
deleting
the
name
councillor
Glenda
Vera
maker
and
inserting
the
name
councillor
Jim
care,
Janice
I
have
talked
to
counselor
minun
Wong,
who
supports
the
motion
as
well
as
councillor
Janice
I
found
it
challenging.
K
The
board
was
meeting
on
evenings
that
I
simply
could
not
attend
and
I
think
it's
a
very
important
advisory
board.
It
actually
deals
a
lot
of
issues
at
the
Grace
Hospital,
which
is
north
of
the
401
in
councillor
Janice's
Ward,
not
in
my
ward.
So
we've
all
agreed
that
this
is
an
appropriate
motion
to
put
forward
and
and
I
missed.
Your
chair,
like
many
in
this
council
chambers,
believe
that
peace
is
better
than
more
and
I've,
been
now
through.
A
couple
of
different
governments.
K
Lo
and
behold,
my
very
first
meeting
I
certainly
got
to
meet
the
chair
of
the
committee
councillor
Platt
Co
and
struck
up
a
great
working
relationship,
especially
when
one
of
the
first
orders
of
businesses
was
to
watch
people
dancing
on
a
strippers,
dance
pole
unbeknownst
to
us
in
the
first
meeting
of
of
that
committee
meeting.
So
when
you
get
slated
in
a
committee
that
perhaps
wasn't
your
first
or
second
choice,
sometimes
you
land
on
a
committee
that
you
find
actually
to
be
covering
a
lot
of
interesting
subjects
and
a
lot
of
things
of
public
interest.
K
L
Mr.
mayor,
that
I
have
a
motion
that
the
appointment
to
the
Exhibition
Place
Board
of
Governors
be
amended
by
deleting
the
name
councillor
Georgio
mammal
Edie
and
inserting
the
name
councillor
Gord
Parkes
now
I
make
this
motion
primarily
because
there's
a
custom
and
a
convention
in
this
floor
of
Council
that
we
appoint
the
local
councillors
to
boards
that
exists
within
their
their
writing
boundaries.
L
Exhibition
Place
is
is,
is
typically
no
exception,
except
for
the
first
two
years
of
last
term,
when
I
was
left
off
the
board
of
Exhibition
Place,
while
major
decisions
were
being
made
that
affected
the
constituents
of
of
my
community
I.
Wasn't
there
I
wasn't
even
given
notice
I've
out
a
lot
of
these
things,
we're
now
struggling
with
some
of
the
with
some
of
those
the
results
of
some
of
those
decisions
and
we're
trying
to
address
them
now.
L
Exhibition
Place
has
a
new
strategic
plan
that
is
saying:
let's
open
our
doors
to
the
local
community,
councillor
perks
and
I
and
n
councillor
Grimes,
but
independently
councillor,
perks
and
I,
negotiated
for
several
weeks
and
and
months
with
MLSE
on
the
location,
their
basketball
training
facility,
and
it
was
with
the
planning
staff
trying
to
figure
out
a
way
to
protect
the
green
space
on
this
site.
But
that
job
wasn't
done.
L
We
worked
hard
at
it,
but
the
job
wasn't
completed
because
now
they're
just
going
through
the
planning
phases
and
we've
got
to
figure
out
how
to
replace
that
green
space.
And
you
know
who
it
was:
I
chaired
the
council,
the
community
liaison
committee
for
exhibition,
place.
You
know
who
it
was
that
was
showing
up
to
those
meetings,
residents
of
Park
Dale
residents
around
the
community
of
Exhibition,
Place
and
so
councilor
perks.
Was
there
responding
to
his
neighbors?
Now
it's
a
shame
that
this
convention
and
this
custom
hasn't
continued
through
this
next
term
of
council
I.
L
Think
every
single
board
of
management
for
a
community
center,
an
arena
or
anything
else
is
includes
the
local
councillor
he's
been
on
the
exhibition,
place
board
of
governors
for
several
years
now
and
has
consistently
contributed
a
great
deal
to
the
discussion
there
and
I
I
would
to
be
quite
honest.
I
would
step
aside
and
let
him
be
on
the
committee.
L
L
I
couldn't
see
that
being
a
proper
decision
to
make
a
third
name
is
the
is
Council
is
meritorious
a
recommendation
that
also
couldn't
be
a
name
that
that
would
be
on
my
list
here
and
that
left
just
two
names
now
I
chose
the
name
of
I
did
because
of
comments
that
came
up
in
the
last
term
of
council
as
well
about
the
residents
of
the
councillor
who's
been
left
off.
I
think
we
all
remember
what
they,
what
those
were
I
won't
repeat
them
here.
They
don't
bear
repeating.
L
M
You,
mr.
mayor
and
congratulations
to
you
and
to
everybody
for
being
elected,
I
come
from
a
another
place,
and
maybe
the
customers
of
that
place
and
the
customs
over
here
might
not
be
similar.
However,
I
find
that
once
an
individual
gets
returned
to
his
seat
or
her
seat,
the
people
of
his
area
or
her
or
her
area
have
chosen
that
individual
to
represent
them
and
that
individual
has
the
same
rights
in
this
place
as
anybody
else
irregardless
of
reports,
regardless
of
anything
else.
M
Let
us
happen
in
the
past,
because
if
that
individual
is
not
the
right
to
be
here,
she
or
he
would
have
been
barred
from
running.
They
would
not
have
gotten
the
green
light
from
the
city
clerk
or
for
where
else
in
order
to
run.
So
once
a
person
gets
returned
here
that
person
his
or
her
rights
have
to
be
protected,
and
that
mr.
mayor
is
either
yourself
today
or
the
speaker,
that's
paramount
that
the
rights
of
an
individual
member
of
council
are
protected.
M
Irregardless
of
what
reports
were
written
irregardless
of
what
comments
somebody
might
want
to
stand
up
and
grant
sent.
So
for
somebody
to
stand
up
and
wave
a
report
that
was
written
a
couple
of
years
ago
and
say
that
person's
rights
should
be
suspended
or
that
person's
rights
should
be
taken
away
in
another
place
would
not
have
been
entertained
and
or
even
allowed
to
stand.
So
in
this
spirit
that
we
all
are
elected
here
and
then
the
spirit
of
being
functional,
you
spent
four
years
of
being
dysfunctional.
M
The
only
thing
that
I
heard
when
I
was
door
knock
into
my
word.
The
dysfunctionality
of
the
previous
council
has
to
go.
Here
I
am
first
a
new
kid
on
the
block
past
experiences
and
something
tells
me
we're
going
back
into
it
and
something
tells
me
we
got
to
move
away
from
it.
So,
mr.
mayor
I'm,
not
sure
if
you
can
make
a
ruling
or
if
this
is
the
right
place
to
put
it
that
I,
don't
think
it's
in
order,
it
would
not
have
been
in
order
in
another
place.
M
Maybe
it's
in
order
to
here,
and
maybe
we
need
to
change
our
rules.
Individuals
name
was
put
forward.
Individual
was
elected,
individual
each
duly
allowed
to
be
here
and
represent.
His
constituent
is
his
word,
so,
unfortunately,
in
another
place
that
would
not
have
been
allowed
and
I
think
this
is
a
character
assassination
that
should
not
even
be
allowed
to
stand.
I
think
the
clerk.
A
Will
correct
me:
Thank
You,
councillor
Cara
Janice,
that
you
can
vote
against
the
motion.
The
motion
I
think
was
in
order
because
it's
an
amendment
like
the
others
and
if
you
don't
like
the
basis
upon
which
the
motion
was,
but
you
can
vote
against
it.
So
I
will
treat
the
motion
as
being
in
order
and
thank
you
very
much
for
your
comments
and
call
upon
a
councillor,
Carmichael
Greb,
to
speak.
A
When
we
come
to
vote,
does
that
mean
I've
reached
because
I'm
not
sure
it
says,
waiting
to
speak
one,
but
my
screen
doesn't
show
I'm,
sorry,
okay,
where
do
I
see
that,
just
as
a
matter
of
interest
for
future
reference,
it
doesn't
show
anywhere
counselor,
counselor,
Fletcher
I,
think
you
were
on
the
list
to
speak
and
it's
your
turn
just
hold
on
one
second
I
gotta
catch
up
with
myself.
There
you
go.
K
N
You
I
did
have
a
motion
that
I
wanted
to
move.
I
think
the
staff
have
that
ready.
Just
didn't
have
the
name
and
I'm
going
to
put
Kristin
counselor
Wang
Tam's
name
on
that
when
it
gets
up
there
and
I'm
sorry,
I
haven't
really
had
enough
time
to
consult
with
everybody,
including
your
staff.
But
what
I'd
like
to
propose
is
that
if
council
of
philly
ons
motion
fails
on
deleting
councillor
mammal
IDI
that
this
council
would
expand
the
nominating
committee
to
four
members
and
add
a
member
from
Toronto
in
East
York
Community
Council.
N
Currently
the
members
on
the
nominating
panel
for
the
siave
are
from
Scarborough
North,
York
and
Etobicoke.
But
there
is
nobody
from
the
Toronto
East
York
Community
Council,
which
does
have
a
fairly
onerous
agenda.
It
has
actually
two
committees
of
adjustment,
there's
so
many
applications
through
the
committee
of
adjustment
and,
of
course,
very
important
to
our
residents.
N
N
So
I
would
very
much
appreciate
that,
should
councillor
Phil
Aeons
motion
not
pass
that
we
would
be
magnanimous
and
flesh
out
that
committee,
to
the
extent
that
it
represents
all
sections
of
the
city
and
I
see
the
councillor.
Chinle
is
saying
yes,
he
thinks
that's
a
good
idea
and
I
appreciate
your
I,
appreciate
your
thoughtfulness
and
your
being
in
the
spirit
of
the
mayor's
inaugural
speech
yesterday
at
City
Council.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
Thank
You
councillor,
Fletcher
and
I
gather
that
particular
amendment
motion
is
in
order,
because
this
is
a
body
of
council
as
opposed
to
others.
So
with
that
we'll
join
the
list
of
those
amendments
we
have
to
deal
with
now,
I
believe
oh
I
have
one
more
that's
to
come
up
on
the
screen.
Councillor
DiGiorgio
to
speak.
O
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
and,
let
me
add
my
comments
and
congratulatory
comments
on
your
election
mr.
mayor,
and
to
all
my
fellow
councillors.
Mr.
mayor,
my
recollection
of
the
nominating
committee
when
it
relates
to
committee
of
adjustment,
applicants
was
one
that
the
committee
would
be
concerned.
The
nominating
panel
would
be
concerned
about
applying
rules
that
are
explicit
under
the
Planning
Act
and
the
Planning
Act.
When
they
talk
about
principles
of
is
this
an
official
does?
Is
it?
Does
it
meet
the
intent
of
the
official
plan?
O
There's
a
meet
the
intent
of
the
zoning
bylaw,
someone
who
is
going
to
state
an
opinion
on
whether
a
development
has
an
impact
on
a
local
community
will
exercise
that
opinion
not
based
on
the
location,
in
other
words,
we're
going
to
recommend
people
that
have
discretion
and
are
able
to
apply
the
principles
of
the
Planning
Act
across
the
city
as
a
whole.
We're
not
going
to
say.
Oh
no,
you
know
you.
Your
comments
are
particularly
applicable
in
the
City
of
Toronto,
or
particularly
applicable
in
Scarborough.
O
O
Let
me
read:
it
doesn't
matter
where
they
could
all
come
from
one
area.
It
wouldn't
matter
to
me
because,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
Community
Council
will
take
a
look
at
all.
The
people
are
being
put
forward
and
ultimately,
council
will
make
the
final
decision
on
the
people
that
are
being
put
forward
to
serve
on
the
various
panels.
Thank
you.
A
G
B
G
I
P
You
thank
you
so
much
mr.
mayor,
I
too,
would
like
to
add
my
congratulations
to
both
you
and
all
of
the
other
members
of
councilor
for
for
your
election
and
our
elections
as
well.
I
I
also
want
to
take
just
a
few
short
seconds
to
thank
my
counselor
colleague,
Frank
DiGiorgio,
who
has
agreed
to
to
swap
names
with
me
on
the
Toronto
and
region.
P
Essentially,
in
fact,
I
was
heartened
to
hear
the
mayor.
I
say
yesterday
in
relation
to
the
appointment
of
the
economic
development
committee
chair
that
he
should
go
out
and
sell,
sell,
sell.
And
yes,
that
is
very
much
part
of
selling
what
we
have
the
City
of
Toronto,
basically
maintaining
jobs
here
and
so
on.
So
I
want
to
thank
my
counsellor
colleague
for
for
agreeing
to
do
that
and
allowing
me
the
opportunity
back
on
the
Toronto
region,
Conservation
Authority,
so
I
would
ask
counselors
colleagues
to
support
that.
P
I
was
also
in
just
generally
speaking
to
the
to
the
appointments
and
the
list
of
appointments.
I
I
have
been
as
many
other
people
have
been
as
well
following
diligently
in
the
media,
the
the
entire
debate
about
the
incoming
mayor
and
you
know
the
appointments
and-
and
you
know
who
gets
picked
for
what
for
what
jobs
and
so
on
and
and
in
fact,
I
was
asked
yesterday
by
cp24
I,
just
outside
my
office.
So
what
did
you
think
of
of
the
you
know?
P
P
So
when
I
follow
in
the
media,
the
you
know
the
well,
the
left
and
the
progressives
got
God
left
off
and
they
weren't
really
picked
for
any
key
positions
or
there
any
keep
jobs
and
so
on
I.
My
view
is
well,
you
know,
that's
his
prerogative,
that's
what
he
has
decided
to
do
that
it.
That's
that
the
course
he
has
chosen
and
I
didn't
think
it
was
wise.
I
didn't
think
that
it
was
that
it
communicated
a
particular
message
that
that
connected
very
well
but
but
I
happened
to
be
at
an
event.
P
You
gotta
give
it
a
chance,
so
I'm
thinking
I'm,
hoping
that
it
is
a
very,
very
brilliant
plus
strategy
and
I'm
quite
happy
to
and
prepared
to
give
it
the
opportunity
for
it
to
work
I'm,
not
at
all
surprised
that
I
see
my
name
only
in
one
particular
spot
on
on
all
of
the
pages,
but
again
I
suggest
it
is
the
the
mayor's
prerogative
and
and
I'm
happy
to
support
the
document
that
we
have
in
front
of
us.
Thank
you.
P
A
Will
point
out
that
the
clerk
was
little
he's
doing
the
clock
for
me
today
he
was
a
little
late
in
starting
it.
So
don't
press
your
luck
but
I
I
know
it
says
what
it
says,
but
you
go
ahead
and
you
go
ahead
and
conclude
councillor
Prusa,
but
do
that
briefly
out
of
fairness
to
the
fact
the
clock
started
a
bit
late,
shall
we
say:
do.
G
Mr.
mayor,
like
the
others,
I'm
delighted
to
welcome
you
to
this
chamber,
you'll
find
out
that,
unlike
the
other
two
orders,
parliamentary
orders
of
government,
there
is
no
democratic
deficit
in
this
place
and
I
wish
you
well,
as
you
negotiate
your
way
through
the
the
act
of
debates
that
we
can
have
from
time
to
time
here
in
this
chamber.
I
should
have
started
off
by
introducing
my
an
amendment.
First
and
I
do
apologise.
G
D
A
A
A
A
B
G
Mayor
I'd
like
to
move
that
City
Council
admit
the
committee
amend
the
committee
of
adjustment
nominating
panel
composition
by
adding
two
more
members
in
appointing
councillor
J
Robinson
and
councillor
Mary,
frangie
Dacus,
two
very
worthwhile
and
bright
involved.
People
I
couldn't
think
of
a
better
addition
to
those
two
that
panel
than
the
two
that
I'm
putting
forward
right
now.
Q
A
G
C
D
A
Right,
we'll
now
have
a
vote
then,
on
councillor,
Phil
Ian's
motion
to
withdraw
all
in
favor
recorded
vote.
So
we'll
move
to
a
recorded
vote.
You
beat
councillor
for
it
to
the
punch
for
councillor
Thompson
I,
understand
that
I
just
you
know,
I
got
so
used
to
him
doing
it
yesterday.
That
I
was
sort
of
just
expecting
was
gonna
happen
today,
and
indeed
it
would
have
you'd
already
forewarned
me
of
that.
So
the
vote
is
now
open.
A
Thank
you,
I
think
that
renders
then
councillor
Fletcher's
motion
which
I
have
here
somewhere
as
redundant.
That's
number
seven
on
the
list
of
amendments
that
have
been
put
out,
and
this
is
number
eight
that
was
councillor
Kelly
Samantha
correct.
So
we
move
now
to
consider
the
amendments
and
the
main
motion
starting.
Yes,
we're
going
order,
starting
with
motion
one
you
have
copies.
They
believe
members
of
council
do
that.
A
Sorry
I,

A
A
D
A
D
A
Thank
you
very
much,
members
of
council
I
believe
that
completes
a
consideration
of
item
one
and
brings
us
to
item
two
am
I
correct
all
right
and
we
begin
with
questions.
Are
there
any
questions
on
item
two
which
has
to
do
with
the
continued
service
of
the
city
manager?
No
I'm,
sorry,
it's
to
do
with
the
schedule
of
the
council!
I'm!
Sorry
about
that
all
right
hold
on.
Let
me
find
that
here.
J
Guess
I'm
gonna
follow
up
from
the
committee
with
this
questioning,
but
my
concern
was
that
all
the
boards
and
agencies
will
do
their
best
or
at
least
give
some
direction
from
us
to
do
their
best
to
not
schedule
their
board
meetings.
While
we
have
council
meetings
what
I
neglected
to
ask
earlier
was:
will
each
board
know
when
each
more
the
other
boards
are
having
their
board
meetings
so
that
those
of
us
that
sit
on
one
or
two
or
three
boards
would
be
able
to
make?
J
J
R
B
A
A
That
I
guess
it
should
have
been
moved
at
the
beginning,
but
I
guess
nobody.
Oh
that's,
okay!
Any
questions.
No!
You
have
to
get
a
response
right,
you're,
just
asking
the
question.
So
yes,
I,
guess
you're
free
to
make
that
suggestion
ma'am
any
other
questions
of
staff
on
this
matter
on
the
schedule.
F
N
F
We
normally
approve
a
process
and
we
normally
set
out
all
of
the
phases
of
that
process,
and
it's
not
here
and
it's
already
in
the
we
have
not
approved
it
and
it's
already
in
the
calendar,
so
I
guess
I
want
to
know
if
you
intend
to
bring
forward
a
recommended
budget
process
for
council
consideration.
So.
P
D
You
very
much
mr.
mayor,
I
I
seek
clarification
from
the
clerk
with
respect
to
the
lines
of
questioning
that
councilor
ma'am
lead.
He
was
asking
the
notion
of
requests
and
direct
I
wanted
to
find
out
from
the
clerk
by
way
of
authority.
What
authority
does
this
particular
body
have
with
respect
to
both
of
those
of
requests
and
direct?
It's
my
understanding.
D
We
can
request
our
ABCs
to
do
and
they
may
do
if
they
choose
to
because
at
the
same
time
there
are
emergencies
where
meetings
are
required,
and
that
may
be
similar
dates
and
time
when
council
is
actually
meeting
but
to
direct
them.
It
seems
to
me
that's
contrary
to
what
our
ability
is
so
I
wonder
if
we
can
have
that
clarification,
please.
R
M
D
M
M
The
questions
you
certainly
will
see
that
they're
celebrating
on
the
on
the
December,
the
25th,
so
I'm
just
wondering
what
calendar
where
was
obtained.
If
that
can
be
provided
and
and
if
you
can
prove
to
the
Orthodox
that
you
have
to
in
here
that
that's
right
then
maybe
I
should
start
telling
my
mother
and
my
dad
that
they
were
wrong
when
they
said
that
Christmas
on
the
Greek
Orthodox
calendar
is
on
December.
The
25th.
Please
allow
please
advise
me
if
I'm
wrong.
A
We
can't
add
anything
at
this
stage.
Well,
I
think
there
was
a
question
there
as
to
whether
you
can
confirm
really
what
you
said,
but
you're
saying
the
information
you
have
is
that
the
7th
of
January
is
Orthodox,
Christmas
and
I
guess
all
we
can
do
is
have
a
further
look
at
that
outside
of
the
bounds
of
this
meeting
and
move
on
and-
and
the
counselor
of
course
is
free
to
speak
to
this.
If
he
wishes,
when
we
get
to
the
speakers,
I
have
councillor
Robinson
to
ask
a
question
of
staff.
This.
E
Question
is
to
staff
regarding
the
March
Break
schedule,
so
my
understanding
is-
and
maybe
you
can
correct
me-
that,
prior
to
the
last
term,
the
two
weeks
of
March
Break
were
respected,
so
different
school
boards
and
school
systems
have
different
March
breaks
identified
on
our
calendar.
We've
got
March
Break
as
a
16th
the
week
of
the
9th
the
week
prior
to
that
a
lot
of
religious
schools,
private
schools
specialized
schools
are
also
off
or
have
that
week
off
so
I'm
wondering
if
there's
any
consideration
to
reverting
back
to
the
way.
E
We
were
one
term
ago
where
we
tried
to
make
the
calendar
light
in
those
in
respect
to
those
families
that
are
on
vacation
in
that
time
period.
I
know
that
last
year
there
was
a
lot
of
talk
about
the
airline
airport
expansion
being
debated
in
that
period
and
I
know.
My
residents
wanted
to
be
part
and
parcel
of
that
debate.
If
it
had
happened.
Luckily
the
meeting
was
shifted
back,
but
my
question
is
staff
is:
was
there
any
consideration
for
that?
R
Mr.
mayor,
we
did
give
consideration
to
that.
We
also
gave
consideration
to
the
Pan
Am
and
Parapan
games
in
July
and
August,
and
we
did
our
best
to
accommodate
the
budget
process
in
the
time
frame
as
well.
Last
year,
if
I
recall
correctly,
we
only
had
one
week
of
March
break
as
well
to
accommodate
the
budget
process,
and
so
we
do
our
best.
It's
a
balancing
act.
R
A
All
right,
I,
don't
have
anybody
else
listed
to
ask
questions
of
staff
and
if
there
are
no
further
questions
to
be
asked
of
staff,
we
could
move
to
people
who
wish
to
speak
to
the
schedule
and
to
the
to
the
motion
put
forward
by
the
strike
and
committee
on
the
schedule.
Are
there
any
speakers?
I
don't
have
any
that
have
requested
to
speak
I'm.
Sorry,
you
dint
the
councillor
minute
Wong.
B
Thank
You
mr.
chair
I'm,
happy
to
move
the
calendar.
The
recommendations
in
the
report
I
think
it's
an
excellent
idea
that
members
of
council
in
the
public
should
be
more
aware
of
the
meanings
of
the
ABCs.
If
they
were
more
aware
of
those
meetings,
they
might
attend
more
of
those
meetings
and
they
would
know
about
when
Bill
Toronto
and
vestrana
or
Waterfront
Toronto
was
meeting
so
that
so
they
actually
might
actually
look
at
their
agendas.
B
B
A
J
Mr.
mayor
I'm
gonna
move
that
the
City
Council
request
the
city's
agency's
special
purpose
parties
and
special
purpose
bodies
to
avoid
scheduling
their
board
meetings
at
the
same
time,
so
that
there
will
be
no
overlapping
board
meetings
wherever
possible
and
I
move
this,
for
the
reasons
outlined
earlier,
I
can
point
to
just
two
boards
right
now
that
I'm
gonna
be
sitting
on
and
that's
Exhibition
Place
and
TRCA.
They
meet
on
Friday
mornings.
A
J
That
the
City
Council
requests
the
city's
agencies
and
special
purpose
bodies
to
avoid
scheduling
their
board
meetings
at
the
same
time,
so
that
there
will
be
no
overlapping
board
meetings
wherever
possible.
The
intent
is
for
them
to
to
communicate
with
each
other
at
staff
levels
and
come
up
with
a
schedule
proposed
to
the
boards
the
perspective
boards
that
won't
overlap
with
each
other.
All.
A
A
G
F
F
So
I
just
want
to
make
that
point
today
that
when
we
are
in
an
election
year,
we
have
a
very
contracted
budget
process
and
I
would
hope
that
we're
not
locking
ourselves
into
a
budget
process
before
the
executive
committee
has
an
opportunity,
and
the
public
has
an
opportunity
to
have
some
input
in
the
budget
process
for
this
year.
Could.
A
D
A
B
F
So
as
long
as
there's
an
openness
of
willingness
to
have
those
discussions,
I
won't
move
anything
and
I'll
just
speak
with
the
chair
and
and
the
CFO,
and
make
sure
that
the
process
is
one
that
provides
the
most
access
and
transparency
for
our
constituents
to
participate
in
this
budget
process.
Clerk.
B
S
S
Thank
you
very
much.
My
motion
is
that
city
council
amend
the
purpose
of
the
budget
committee,
dates
on
January
26
to
29
to
include
budget
briefing
and
service
standards
review.
This
is
different
only
in
the
addition
of
the
and
service
standards
review
during
the
normal
budget
process
that
we
adopted
in
the
last
couple
of
years.
Committees
have
had
an
opportunity
to
review
the
service
standards
on
which
our
budgets
are
based.
S
If
you'll
recall,
we
did
that,
because
we've
got
ourselves
into
a
very
difficult
box,
which
is,
we
were
unable
to
change
the
service
standards
when
the
budget
was
put
in
front
of
us.
It
was
a
sort
of
chicken
and
egg
problem
which
comes
first,
the
service
standards
or
the
money
to
pay
for
that
service
standard.
S
If
we
are
going
to
be
able
to
get
get
out
of
that
chicken
and
egg
problem
for
this
one
truncated
budget
period
coming
out
of
the
election,
we
need
a
moment
where
we
can
both
look
at
the
money
and
the
purpose
of
the
money,
because
if
we
go
in
with
the
service
standard
stet-
and
we
already
have
service
standards
for
all
of
our
departments,
we'll
be
unable
to
move
motions
saying
you
know
what
two
hours
a
week
of
recreation
time
for
free
and
this
community
is
simply
an
insufficient.
We
think
it
should
be
four.
S
So
what
my
motion
does
is
give
council
the
opportunity
at
those
budget
committee
meetings
to
have
a
discussion
not
to
move
motions,
because
these
are
discussions
but
to
have
a
discussion
about
the
service
standards
and
their
relationship
to
the
money
that
we
have
now.
I
know
that
it's
always
been
a
difficulty
with
the
the
operating
departments
and
the
financial
planning
departments
having
a
different
view
about
how
we
want
to
conduct
our
budget.
This
will
give
us
an
opportunity
in
this
constrained
year
to
have
both
of
those
questions
debated
at
those
meetings.
S
There's
nowhere
else
in
the
schedule
that
we
would
be
able
to
fit
that
review,
but
councilors
we
were
elected
to
talk
about
the
level
of
service
that
Torontonians
want
and
I'm
sure
that
if
you're
like
me,
you
heard
over
and
over
and
over
again
that
in
some
areas
were
simply
deficient.
This
will
give
us
an
opportunity
to
discuss
that
at
the
same
time
that
we
talk
about
the
money.
Thank
you.
F
Wonder
if
that's
an
order,
part
of
our
job
as
we
plan
comprehensively
especially
for
our
budget,
is
to
do
that
review
and
usually
we
do
them
together.
We
don't
do
them
separately.
Part
of
our
you
know
when
we
go
through
the
budget
process.
I
was
a
Budget
Committee
for
a
few
months
last
year,
and
part
of
our
obligation
is
to
make
sure
that
both
meld
we've
got
to
make
sure
that
the
money's
there
and
we
set
those
service
levels
as
part
of
that
now
that's
a
joint
exercise
as
part
of
that
so
I.
A
H
A
I'm
going
to
roll
the
motion
in
order
and
it
will
come
the
amendment
and
it
will
come
to
a
vote
at
the
appropriate
time.
Thank
you.
What
do
I
have
here
now
I.
Have
that's
the
end
of
the
request
to
speak
that
I
have
so
that
would
bring
us
I
think
to
dealing
with
that
amendment.
We
just
had
put
on
the
floor
by
councillor
perks,
I,
don't
have
a
paper
copy
of
that,
but
it
is.
A
Well,
there
was
just
the
one:
wasn't
there
amendment?
Oh
yes,
of
course,
councillor
member
ladies
amendment
first
and
that
council
member
mannalie
moved
an
amendment
that
City
Council
requests
the
cities,
agencies
and
special-purpose
bodies
to
avoid
scheduling
their
board
meetings
at
the
same
time.
So
there
will
be
no
overlapping
board
meetings
wherever
possible,
recorded
vote.
J
Mr.
mayor,
with
your
indulgence,
counselor
Kerr
Gianna's
had
a
point
earlier:
I'm,
not
sure
how
that
was
rectified.
It
is
his
first
meeting
and
I
guess
I'd
like
to
get
an
answer
with
respect
to
his
concerns
and
how
we
might
want
to
deal
with
that
and
I'm,
not
sure.
If
he's
satisfied
or
not
so
I
I,
just
I
just
thought:
I'd
stand
up
and
ask
well.
A
He
indicated
it
or
not.
He
indicated
that
he
was
not
satisfied,
but
we
also
didn't
have
any
further
information
at
hand
at
the
clerk's
table
to
address
his
concern
and
I
guess
we
would
undertake
to
get
any
further
information
there
might
be,
including
consulting
with
him,
so
I
guess
I
want
to
take
you.
Do
we
want
to
take
the
clerk's
table
will
undertake
to
do
that.
An.
J
A
But
the
bottom
line
is
the
clerk
stake
table
has
undertaken
to
provide
us
with
a
clarification,
if
possible
on
that,
and
hopefully
that
will
allow
counselor,
Carrie
Janice's
concern
to
be
addressed.
That
brings
us
then,
to
the
to
the
second
amendment
moved
by
Councillor
perks.
If
we
could
have
a
look
at
that
and
it
is
moved
by
Councillor
perks
that
City
Council
amended,
the
purpose
of
the
budget
committee
dates
on
January
26,
the
29th
to
include
budget
briefing
and
service
standards
review
all
in
favor
vote.
A
A
A
A
A
B
Yes,
mr.
mayor
I'd
like
to
nominate
councilor
nuns
yet
for
the
world,
she's
been
doing
it
for
many
years
and
she
she's
had
some
bright
patches
bright
spots.
She's
had
some
rough
patches,
but
I
think
she
has
a
level
of
experience
that
she
could
make
a
positive
contribution
to
this
chamber.
I
think
she's.
B
D
A
A
O
O
As
my
mother
was
a
city
councilor
here,
I've
been
to
peace
and
poverty
and
pride
forums
here
in
this
chamber
and
I
was
deeply
honored
yesterday
to
rise
as
a
new
member
of
counselor-
and
you
know
I'm
here
because,
like
many
of
you
I
believe
it's
time
to
invest
in
our
city
to
build
our
city
again,
and
this
is
a
city
facing
challenges.
Youth
poverty
is
at
29%.
O
We
have
90,000
households
on
the
waiting
list
for
affordable
housing,
youth
unemployment,
it's
hot,
but
I'm-
also
here,
because
I
believe
I
believe
it's
time
to
restore
some
respect
and
civility
to
this
chamber
and
I
think
it's
time
to
try
and
make
politics
good
again.
Mr.
mayor,
in
the
campaign
you
said
not
left
not
right,
but
forward
I
agree
with
you
I'm
there,
but
I,
don't
think
the
selection
of
the
speaker
is
forward
and
for
that
reason,
I
rise
to
say,
I
can't
support
it
and
I'm
ready
to
move
forward.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Councilman
Seattle
did
you
wish
to
say
anything
in
response
to
that
election

a
told
I

a
word
or
two.

you
wish
