Victory: Council Passes 17.5 Million Increase to Arts Investment 40-1!

Toronto, Today Toronto city Council passed a recommendation to increase arts funding to $25 per capita by 2013. This should result in 17.5 million dollars in additional yearly investment by 2013.

This city building decision was made possible by the hard fought billboard tax initiated in 2001 by Beautifulcity.ca - but goes above and beyond the projected revenue.
