On the agenda

As the city filed it

Toronto is getting new, faster, higher capacity, electric ferries to make the trip to Toronto Island Park even better. A naming process for the two new ferries entering service in 2027 is underway. A shortlist of names is being put to a public vote, with a decision coming in May 2026. This process is considering non-commemorative names. This motion requests staff to report back on a commemorative naming process for future ferries purchased by the City of Toronto.

Staff recommended

City Council direct the General Manager, Fleet Services to report back to the Executive Committee by the fourth quarter in 2027 on a commemorative naming process for future ferries purchased by the City of Toronto, in consultation with the local Councillor, consistent with the City of Toronto Property Naming Policy.
