The announcement comes nearly a month after a local activist asked Jonathan Batty to launch the investigation because of Tory’s ties to Rogers Communications Inc. and his vote to limit the closure of ActiveTO at the request of the Toronto Blue Jays, the Major League Baseball team. from the communications giant. Batty informed whistleblower Adam Chaleff Wednesday that he did not have enough time to complete his investigation before the looming deadline this Friday — the last day candidates can register to run in the 2022 municipal election, as well as the day on which all integrity commissioner inquiries must be made end. He says he can continue the inquiry after the election if Chaleff or the Tories request it within six weeks of the Oct. 24 vote. “It is simply not feasible for me to gather all the necessary evidence, complete the required analysis, formulate my findings and report to the parties before August 19, 2022,” Batty wrote in a letter to Chaleff obtained by CBC Toronto. “It is unfortunate that I received this application more than five weeks after the events in question.” Chaleff’s complaint, filed July 22, stems from a written request this summer by Blue Jays CEO Mark Shapiro to stop the ActiveTO traffic closure on Lake Shore Boulevard. He complained that they made it harder for fans to get to the games. Tory is a shareholder in Rogers and an advisor to the Rogers Control Trust — a paid role. Tory chose to vote to suspend the shutdown in mid-June, which reduced the program – rather than withdraw because of his connections with Rogers.
The record of integrity “speaks for itself,” the mayor’s office says
The municipal conflict of interest law prohibits councilors from participating in matters where they have either a direct or indirect financial interest. Consultants are prohibited from using their influence on decisions where there is a direct or indirect conflict. Batty says that while he has spent the past three weeks gathering evidence and conducting interviews, he “hasn’t decided one way or the other” whether the Tories breached the act or not. Torys’ office previously denied the allegations and did so again Wednesday in a written statement to CBC News. “Mayor Tory’s record of integrity speaks for itself, and the timing of this complaint is certainly revealing,” spokesman Lawvin Hadisi said in a statement. “The mayor has co-operated fully with the Integrity Commissioner’s review and is very confident that he complied with the law and acted appropriately and in good faith in this matter.” Chaleff, in a statement to CBC Toronto, says he will ask Batty to continue the investigation. “While I am disappointed that voters will not know the outcome of this investigation before they vote, I appreciate the integrity commissioner’s effort to conduct a full, fair and expeditious investigation into Mayor Tory’s apparent conflict of interest,” Chaleff wrote.
