A natural-born leader, Mary-Margaret McMahon was a strong City Builder long before she was elected to Toronto City Council. She worked tirelessly as a passionate volunteer on projects for a variety of organizations in her community ranging from environmental education, small business advocacy and streetscape beautification, to public awareness-raising on food security issues and initiatives.

In 2010 with an unprecedented landslide victory unseating an entrenched incumbent, it was evident that McMahon’s community believed in her ability to represent them effectively at the municipal level of government.

As the Member of Provincial Parliament for Beaches—East York, McMahon pushed forward critical legislation to raise awareness for the effects of natural disasters, as well as proposing both legislation and motions that would help tackle the climate crisis.

McMahon has a knack for bringing people together and inspiring them. Whether it is working across party lines on the floor or Council to achieve a unanimous vote or empowering residents to form advocacy groups to implement change in their neighbourhoods, she ensures everyone’s voices are heard and ideas valued. Mary-Margaret is a true collaborator.
