City Councillor Paul Ainslie, Scarborough-Guildwood, Ward 24

As an effective member of Toronto City Council, Paul brings a broad perspective to City Hall, with more than 20 years of experience at the federal, provincial, and municipal levels of government.

As Mayor John Tory's designate at the Board of Toronto Seniors Housing Corporation, Paul is committed to realizing the vision of the Tenants First report, which called for the creation of seniors-focused housing and associated services. One of the goals is to ensure seniors age in place with dignity and comfort.

As Chair of the City of Toronto's General Government and Licensing Committee Paul has worked to enhance the City of Toronto’s use of technology, to have easily accessible services for all Toronto residents. During Paul’s tenure as Chair of the Toronto Public Library Board, the library added many social media tools to its portfolio, allowing residents to interact with their library in a modern and comprehensive manner. As Chair of the Board of Directors of the Federation of Ontario Public Libraries, Paul strives to ensure our public libraries have an open, positive environment, where residents can gather to learn, have fun, and partake in programming.

Paul envisions a city where all residents have the tools to utilize an open, accessible, transparent, and accountable local government. Paul hopes this will build public trust and confidence in our municipal government.
ENDORSEMENTS
“I want to acknowledge Councillor Paul Ainslie and Councillor Jennifer  McKelvie who represent Scarborough, at City Council so well,  it is evident of the capability of both these people that they have been asked by me to be a member of the Executive Committee at the City.
Paul Ainslie has had a history of working with what is one of the more challenging committees on Council as it is the one that has everything else.  If is not Economic Development and it isn’t Infrastructure and Development, basically, he ends up with everything else. He has a lot to do with the proper functioning of the city, its modernization and so on.  They are both great fighters for Scarborough and both great contributors to the building of the City overall.  I really appreciate their leadership in that regard.”
Mayor Tory Comments – Addressing the Scarborough Business Association on July 9, 2021.
