For Torontonians

Start with the life you live and the problem you need solved.

Toronto is becoming harder to live in for too many people. Renters struggle with costs and repairs. Students face rising pressure. Commuters lose hours every week. Small businesses deal with delays and disorder. Families want safer high-rises and reliable services.

Yet again, the world is looking to Toronto to lead. The campaign is bringing people together around shared realities—not around political labels. The promise is simple: make Toronto easier to afford, easier to move through, safer to live in and easier to rely on, using new technology responsibly to deliver results faster.

One promise that unites us

Make daily life work better for everyone.

Keys in doors. Repairs completed. Safer buildings. Reliable journeys. Cleaner streets. Permits that move. Services that answer.

Why this turns Megacity into Gigacity: people with different experiences gain a shared program built around practical outcomes instead of disconnected announcements.

Shared realities, practical commitments

A coalition as broad as Toronto.

Each commitment connects an everyday problem to a result residents can see and measure.

01

Renters and apartment residents

About 48% of Toronto households rent, and 40% of renter households live in unaffordable housing.

  • Faster apartment repairs and stronger, coordinated RentSafeTO enforcement.
  • Real protection against renovictions and illegal evictions, using every municipal power available.
  • Maximum-heat standards, cooling support and high-rise fire, flood and child-fall prevention.
  • More purpose-built rental housing through faster, clearer approvals and modern construction.
  • A simple tenant-services portal with human help and visible case follow-through.

Why this turns Megacity into Gigacity: renters get one coordinated system that protects homes, resolves problems and expands supply.

Students, recent graduates and early-career residents

Toronto’s publicly funded and private universities serve more than 205,000 students, alongside a large college community.

  • AI Enablement Learning Grants pursued with Ontario and Canada, plus paid City internships.
  • More affordable student and workforce housing near campuses, transit and employment.
  • Better late-night TTC service and expanded library study space.
  • A “Stay and Build Toronto” pathway connecting graduates to local employers, public service, entrepreneurship and skilled work.

Why this turns Megacity into Gigacity: Toronto helps learners become builders of the city’s future instead of losing their talent after graduation.

TTC riders, drivers and daily commuters

The time people lose to unreliable service, congestion and poorly coordinated construction is a hidden cost of living.

  • More reliable TTC service and fewer preventable breakdowns.
  • Smarter traffic signals, better bus priority and faster road repairs.
  • Safer intersections and stations that are fully accessible in real life.
  • Functional delivery zones and stronger construction coordination.

Why this turns Megacity into Gigacity: transportation systems work together to give residents time back.

Main-street businesses and independent workers

Toronto’s 84 Business Improvement Areas and thousands of independent operators keep neighbourhoods active and create local jobs.

  • Clean, safe commercial streets and predictable permits.
  • One business-services portal that works across City departments.
  • Construction-impact planning and productive reuse of vacant storefronts.
  • Safe e-bike charging infrastructure and practical AI tools that help small operators—not only large corporations.

Why this turns Megacity into Gigacity: local businesses spend less time navigating City Hall and more time serving neighbourhoods.

05

High-rise safety and resilience

Fire, flood and fall prevention connects renters, condo owners, families, workers and building managers.

  • Practical child-safety mesh and safer window, balcony and rooftop design.
  • Risk-tiered lithium-ion battery safety, secure charging lockers and outdoor swapping hubs.
  • Support for sump pumps, backwater valves and neighbourhood flood protection.
  • Modern building monitoring that identifies risk early while protecting privacy.

Why this turns Megacity into Gigacity: predictable dangers are reduced before families face injury, displacement or major loss.

Families, caregivers and neighbourhood residents

A city that works for families must connect housing, safety, schools, parks, libraries, childcare and emergency services.

  • Housing that supports families at different stages of life.
  • Safer school routes, welcoming parks and reliable libraries.
  • Better coordination around childcare, caregiving and community services.
  • Open neighbourhood events and regular listening through resident associations and local organizations.

Why this turns Megacity into Gigacity: neighbourhood services reinforce one another around the lives people actually lead.

Toronto’s wider responsibility

A city that works for residents can welcome the world with confidence.

Visitors and investors are not substitutes for residents. They matter when they create jobs, strengthen main streets, support culture and help fund a better city.

A coalition built around outcomes

No one has to agree on everything to agree Toronto must work better.

Affordability, mobility and safety are not separate files. They shape whether people can stay in Toronto, build a life, run a business and trust their city.

The campaign will keep listening across neighbourhoods while holding to one practical standard: use responsible technology and smarter coordination to produce visible results faster.

“Make Toronto easier to afford, easier to move through and safer to live in.”
