The item was discussed at the April 8, 2025 meeting of the Economic and Community Development Committee and noted at the Toronto Francophone Affairs Advisory Committee meeting of July 11, 2025. The direction from Economic and Community Development Committee was for Economic Development and Culture to "consider including the creation of an inventory of City-delivered services in French in the Toronto Francophone Affairs Advisory Committee's 2026 work plan, given current priorities regarding the United States tariff response-related work". Following cross-divisional discussion, Economic Development and Culture has determined that this work can be carried out within its Strategic Policy and Management Services section. Economic Development and Culture will add this research item to the Strategic Policy and Management Services work plan for 2026, with the aim of reporting back to the Toronto Francophone Affairs Advisory Committee at the June 18, 2026 meeting.
