Gift Registry FAQs


The Gift Registry is intended to enhance transparency to the public. The Gift Registry will be updated on a quarterly basis.

It is the recipient’s responsibility to complete the Gift Disclosure Statement. The source of the gift, benefit or hospitality, and the circumstances under which it was received will be documented in the Statement.

The Gift Registry was implemented in January 2016.

The Gift Registry applies to all Members of Council and City staff.

While disclosure of all gifts, benefits and hospitality will be encouraged, for each item received that has a value of $50 or more, the recipient must complete a Gift Disclosure Statement and forward it to the Lobbyist Registrar or designate.
