Toronto city council members have come together to pay tribute to the late Giorgio Mammoliti, who passed away at the age of 64. Mammoliti was a long-serving politician, having been elected to Toronto City Council for six terms from 1998 to 2018, representing both North York Humber and York West during his tenure. His contributions extended beyond the city council; he was actively involved in various boards, including the Toronto Zoo board and the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, demonstrating a commitment to public service in different capacities.

Mayor Olivia Chow expressed her condolences, acknowledging Mammoliti’s years of service and dedication to the public. She emphasized his significant impact on the community through his roles as both a Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) and a city councillor. Despite two unsuccessful mayoral campaigns, Mammoliti remained a recognizable figure in Toronto politics, known for his tenacity and involvement in local issues.

Mammoliti's legacy is marked by his extensive experience in public office and his attempts to influence the city's direction, including his candidacy with the People's Party of Canada in 2025. The mourning of his passing by council members and residents reflects the influence he had over his decades-long career, highlighting his contributions and the void left in the Toronto political landscape.
