As the city filed it
It has been over one year since the start of the Russia-Ukraine war where Russia invaded and occupied parts of Ukraine. The invasion has resulted in thousands of deaths and has started one of Europe's largest refugee crises since World War II. In an effort to aid the Ukrainian government, this motion recommends that City Council authorize Fleet Services to donate three vehicles at end-of-life. The vehicles include the following: One 2012 Ford Escape Hybrid (Fleet Services); one 2001 Ford Ranger (Fleet Services); and one 2014 Chevrolet Tahoe from Paramedic Services that is equipped with operational lights, sirens, and basic first aid supplies.

These vehicles would be used to respond to emergency situations in Ukraine. This will be the second donation made by City Council to the Ukrainian war effort, following the four vehicles the City of Toronto donated in 2022 at the request of the Ukrainian Ambassador to Canada, Yulia Kovaliv. The reason for urgency of this motion is to support the current and ongoing war effort in Ukraine.
