A majority of Toronto City Councillors from every corner of the city have signed on to a letter addressed to Premier Doug Ford and the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing opposing the undemocratic Bill 39, which allows Mayor Tory to win votes on City Council with the support of only 1/3 of Councillors. Find out more and see the letter here.

Join us on Wednesday, Nov 30 at 12pm and together we will call each of our own local politicians and the mayor. They need to hear from you, their constituent, to know that you are urging them to stand up for our city and local democracy against Bill 39. Find out more and sign up here.

Mayor John Tory is working closely with Doug Ford to pass a disturbingly undemocratic power grab (Bill 39) that allows the mayor to win votes with the support of only a third of city councillors.

This is happening without consultation with residents and without any discussion at Toronto City Council. Mayor Tory went directly to Doug Ford to ask for these powers. Over 6,000 people have signed our petition opposing Bill 39. Now it’s time to use our tool to send a message to your local city councillor and the mayor requesting an urgent meeting of City Council on Bill 39. Find out more and sign the petition.
