Yesterday, the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing Rob Flack announced during his address at the annual Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) Conference that consultations on Bill 9, Municipal Accountability Act regulations are open.

As we noted in previous updates, Bill 9 is a step forward towards improvements to the accountability framework. However, we remain concerned about gaps in the legislation where more can be done to address the safety and well-being of municipal professionals, especially as regional chairs will be appointed with ‘strong chair’ powers.
