Tour by Toronto's Ombudsman October 20

From Toronto Civics 101 participant Bill Gaw comes this note:

"What should I know about Toronto's Ombudsman?

Find out Tuesday, October 20, 2009, 7-9 p.m. at the Scarborough Civic Centre"

An accompanying article by David Nickle reports:

"Toronto Ombudsman Fiona Crean is coming to Scarborough next week to find out from residents what's working, and what could be working better, at the City of Toronto.
The visit marks the first time that Toronto's new ombudsman has met with residents beyond the downtown confines of Toronto City Hall. The meeting will be sort of a get-to-know-each other session. Crean is hoping that she'll be able to explain the purpose of her office..."

  1. Interesting information. One of her goals, I read in the news, is to create better customer service culture at the city hall. I guess, this face to face session could give her some information to work with.
    If you are attending, please let us know how it went and if she mentioned visits to other T.O. communities at this meeting. Thanks.
