Walk Toronto has co-signed a letter from multiple community groups to Mayor Tory, members of the Striking Committee, and all of Toronto City Council asking that all of the four newly merged Standing Committees of City Council include at least one member from each of the four Community Council areas (Etobicoke-York, North York, Toronto-East York, Scarborough).
In the second half of the previous council term, there was no representative from Toronto-East York on the Public Works and Infrastructure committee, responsible for transportation, even though many critical transportation issues affected this part of the city.
