Victory! Toronto City Council Votes YES!
Posted August 15th, 2008 by katrina
On December 3rd, Toronto City Council voted for a precedent setting toxics disclosure policy. With an overwhelming vote of 33-3, Toronto became the first city that would require businesses - from dry cleaners to funeral homes and auto-body repair shops - to reveal their discharges of 25 priority chemicals.
The Community Right to Know bylaw (CRTK) will be phased in over four years starting in 2010.
