ATU Local 113 was informed of the incident at Royal York Road and Bloor St West earlier today, which resulted in a tragic loss of life.
Our heartfelt condolences go out to the family and loved ones of the deceased.
We have reached out to support our member and are working to ensure that our member and colleagues are getting all the support they need during this very difficult time.
The investigations are ongoing at this time.
Transit systems across Canada are heading for a fiscal cliff, where costs are up and ridership is down. Government, business, academia, and NGOs gathered in Toronto yesterday to figure out how to put public transit back on track – and ATU Local 113 was there to make sure the voices of workers and riders were heard.
During his introductory remarks, President Marvin Alfred set the stage for the discussion with a simple truth: Mobility is dignity, we need politicians to see transit as a core mandate of government, not an ask.
Some highlights from his speech:
On August 10, ATU Local 113 hosted our annual charity golf tournament to support MS Canada and its efforts to finding a cure. It was a successful event with a great turnout. Thank you to everyone who attended, golfed and donated!
ATU Local 113 is pleased to announce the third official winner of our Union Savings promotion!
Congratulations, Jason Sheriff (Maintenance – Truck & Mechanical Repairs)!
Our recent Pensioners’ Party was a huge success! It was an afternoon filled with joy, laughter, and appreciation, reuniting nearly 1000 retired members with old colleagues and friends. Members of our Executive Board were present to meet and greet the pensioners, sharing memories and stories.
President Marvin Alfred expressed gratitude to the retirees and honoured their years of service, sacrifices and their fight for advancements in working conditions and benefits that our members enjoy today. “Building on your legacy, our Local was successful in our efforts to secure improved benefits for our pensioners in the collective bargaining held in 2024. And we will continue to fight for you. Enjoy your well-earned retirement.”
A huge thank you to everyone who helped make the event a huge success – from everyone who attended, to our Local’s organizers and volunteers, along with the staff at the Paradise Banquet and Convention Centre.
We look forward to seeing you all again next year!

ATU Local 113 is proud to share that our annual Charity Hockey event was a tremendous success, thanks to the support from our members, friends and many volunteers.
We hosted the Maple Leafs Alumni for a charity hockey game to raise funds for MS Canada, at York University’s CANLAN Sports Arena, North York.
The event helped raise over $60,000.00 to support efforts of MS Canada. President Marvin Alfred and Secretary-Treasurer Mario Azzopardi presented a cheque to Amanda Zamperin, MS Canada’s Director, Community Fundraising.
The action-packed day began with a family skate event with over 200 families participating. Families also enjoyed meeting the Maple Leafs Alumni and getting autographs from their favorite Leaf legends. The Hockey Hall of fame brought out the Conn Smythe, Selke, Hart, Calder and the Art Ross Trophies to the event and fans were happy to get photographs ahead of the game.
An estimated 1,500 excited fans attended the hockey game. The Maple Leafs Alumniteam was coached by Wendel Clark while the ATU 113 ALL Stars team was coached by Rob Kempers. The final score was 19 Maple Leafs to 3 ATU 113 ALL STARS.
Vincenzo D’eila, one of our teams goalies, was nominated Player of the Game. Tom Humphreys (aka Marty) scored a beauty of a goal in the shootout competition for our team.
ATU Local 113 thanks all the players, our members, sponsors, and volunteers who helped make this event a huge success and a highlight of our events calendar. We look forward to continuing our support to fight MS in Canada.
ATU Local 113 congratulates and is celebrating milestones with our members: Aslam Quraishi from Queensway Maintenance Garage, for 45 years of service and still counting.
And celebrating 50 years of service with Barry Allen, who is now enjoying his retirement.
ATU Local 113 will continue to fight for our members until TTC management does more to create a safer workplace for you.
