On the agenda
As the city filed it
I would like to recommend that the Housing Rights Advisory Committee (HRAC) endorse the recommendations of the Confronting Anti-Black Racism Advisory Committee in Item CR7.3 - Addressing Evictions through Disaggregated Race-Based Data in Social Housing , which were adopted by the Economic and Community Development Committee at its meeting on October 28, 2025 ( Item EC24.6 ). Disaggregated data collection is a central accountability and monitoring mechanism which can be used to assess progress in the fulfillment of the right to adequate housing and identify potential systemic barriers to housing.

Equity-based data collection tools for vulnerable tenants in social housing would support HRAC's fulfillment of its mandate by ensuring that the needs of those with living/lived experiences of housing precarity, discrimination, and homelessness are reflected in City programs and service delivery. This additionally, aligns with the aims of HRAC's motion ( Item HS6.9 ) requesting an assessment of opportunities for collecting disaggregated data on vulnerable tenants in multi-tenant housing, to better identify priority populations that may be disproportionately impacted by housing instability. In sum, I believe it is important to champion all efforts to support the City's commitment to progressively realize the right to adequate housing, as affirmed in the Toronto Housing Charter .
Staff recommended
That the Housing Rights Advisory Committee: 1. Endorse the Confronting Anti-Black Racism Advisory Committee's recommendations in Item CR7.3 - Addressing Evictions through Disaggregated Race-Based Data in Social Housing.
