| Profile |
| Described as "the unstoppable Sandra Bussin" by Toronto Sun columnist Sue-Ann Levy, Councillor Sandra Bussin is passionate about providing excellent community service. Elected in 1997 to the first Council of the newly amalgamated City of Toronto, Sandra is serving her fourth term as City Councillor for Ward 32, Beaches-East York. Councillor Bussin also serves as Speaker of Toronto City Council. A former educator and public School Trustee, Sandra has a long record of public service, including 15 years as a senior political advisor at the Provincial Legislature.
Speaker Bussin is past Chair of the Roundtable for a Clean and Beautiful City, which promotes Toronto's beautification and promotion of citizen engagement to achieve community improvements. Sandra Bussin is a Toronto Transit Commissioner and a member of the Corporations Nominating Panel.
Councillor Bussin represents the Beaches neighbourhood: a part of Toronto with a genuinely "small town atmosphere". People from all over the city and beyond come to enjoy the Boardwalk, Woodbine Park, Kew Gardens, the festive shops and cafés on Queen Street East, and the traditional tree-lined residential streets. The residents of the Beach are very involved in community life. Sandra joins with her constituents in leading committees and community projects.
Recent initiatives in Councillor Bussin's ward include the closing of six incinerators in Ashbridges Bay and a $2.2 million renovation and extension of the Beaches Library. In addition, $12 million was approved to build the new Main Square Recreation Centre and $750,000 for the new addition at Kimberley Public School. Councillor Bussin acquired the Kew Williams (Gardener's) Cottage for community use and has secured $11 million for the landscape and active sport field plan in the Ashbridges Bay area of Ward 32. |
