Contents

[edit] Not enough information

This article seams to be vague and lacking of content. Perhaps we could add some more content; i.e. proposed laws, important decisions made in the history of the council, controversies, ect.

[edit] No more red links

The easy way out is to just remove the links. Of course, someone who's a true expert on this sort of thing can do a bit of research and make an article for each councillor.

[edit] Red Links

The red-linking to non-existent and non-notable councillors is an eyesore. Can this be resolved?

[edit] St Paul's ward

The article on History_of_neighbourhoods_in_Toronto claims that St Paul's was one of the original wards of Toronto, but it's missing from the list in this article. Could someone add it, and add information about its borders too? I suspect St Paul's corresponds to Yorkville, because there are multiple things in Yorkville named "St Paul's whatever". That would also explain why St Paul's is missing from the list of wards, because Toronto didn't annex Yorkville until 1883, which is later than the source cited. (Someone should also look into other parts of Toronto that were annexed late, like Parkdale and Brockton. Did they have their own ward names too?) 99.225.130.171 (talk) 03:30, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

And now I have a cite. "on Feb. 1, 1883, the Village of Yorkville vanished, joining the city as St. Paul's Ward." http://www.torontosun.com/life/columnists/2009/02/01/8221486-sun.html. (That took me all night to find!) 99.225.130.171 (talk) 04:43, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
