As the city filed it
As one of the City of Toronto appointees to the Federation of Canadian Municipalities Board of Directors, I am writing to provide an update on the recent FCM Board of Directors Gathering held in Ottawa on September 18-19. This gathering was a valuable opportunity for board members to receive targeted information, engage in discussions, and prepare for the upcoming fall and winter. Key focus areas of the meeting included: - Reconciliation: We discussed FCM's developing Reconciliation strategy and engaged in facilitated roundtable discussions to gather input from board members.

This was a positive step towards empowering board members to become Reconciliation champions in their home municipalities. - New Board Member Orientation: We welcomed and oriented new board and committee members, providing them with information on the current context and major issues facing our municipalities. - Electoral Readiness and Strategic Planning: FCM's senior leadership presented on current priorities and the steps being taken to position municipal needs ahead of a future election. Additionally, our CEO, Carole Saab, provided an update on the development of our overall strategic plan. - Green Municipal Fund: We highlighted the success of the Green Municipal Fund in driving positive impacts for Canadian communities and discussed ongoing and new programs. - Legal Defense Fund: We updated our board on the status of the Legal Defense Fund and its key role in supporting our capacity to intervene in precedent-setting federal appellate cases. The meeting was a productive and informative event that will help position FCM and its member municipalities for success in the coming months.
