Statement on Mayor Tory's Resignation

Mayor Tory's resignation means that now more than ever, all of our councillors need to work together to give our city and our people the strong, effective City Council they can depend on, and deserve.

At City Hall, a lot can happen in just a day – and last night was no different.

I want to thank Mayor Tory for his commitment to public service, for providing much-needed stability throughout the pandemic, and for entrusting me with key responsibilities at Council.

Mayor Tory's resignation means that now more than ever, all of our councillors need to work together to give our city and our people the strong, effective City Council they can depend on, and deserve.

As your councillor for Toronto Centre, that's what I'm going to do.

The mayor has always been one part of Toronto City Council, so this doesn’t change any of the work ahead of us. We have to deal with serious challenges in housing, public health and mental health, the cost of living crisis, the TTC, a state of repair for our infrastructure, and community safety.

That's why I'm here, and that's what I'm focused on improving — for the people of Toronto Centre, and for all Torontonians.

 

Yours in service,


Chris Moise
City Councillor
Ward 13 - Toronto Centre

May City Council Highlights

At our meeting on May 21 and 22, City Council dedicated a significant amount of time to address the Ombudsman Report on the City’s response to a vital service outage in a multi-tenant home, as well as the Council-directed proposed bylaw to protect social infrastructure. Amidst thoughtful discussion and lively debate, I also released section 37 funds to advance projects from the 2024 Participatory Budgeting cycle.

Councillor Update - June 2025

Happy Pride Month! June is both a month of celebration and reflection on the progress the 2SLGBTQ+ community has made. With choppy international waters causing fear and uncertainty both south of the border and at home, I know many in our community are feeling a lot of anxiety. So if you need it, please make space for yourself this month.

There is a lot to do in the City this summer, and I encourage you to experience everything you can. For Pride events in June, please visit my online calendar to see what is happening here in Toronto Centre. If you are looking to enjoy an outdoor meal or drink, I have a list of CafeTO, sidewalk cafe and private patios for you to browse. Registration for summer recreation is also opening next week, including for swimming classes, art workshops and sports programs.
