Purpose of the mission:

The Istanbul Chamber of Commerce, in concert with the American Chamber of Commerce and the Greater Toronto Marketing Alliance are assembling a Trade and Investment Mission to Istanbul, Turkey. The purpose of the delegation is to strengthen ties between Toronto and Istanbul, and to communicate the excellent growth opportunities that exist here in Toronto.

Economic uncertainty in Europe, and around the world, has made Toronto a "safe haven" destination for entrepreneurs and investors. Supported by the Turkish Ministry of the Economy, Turkish businesses receive state support for international business expansion. It is our mission to make Toronto their first choice.

The delegation will be hosted by the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce, one of the largest Chambers globally, with over 350,000 members.

Proposed Role of the Deputy Mayor:

Deputy Mayor Minnan-Wong, alongside the Deputy Mayor of Istanbul, will affirm Toronto's commitment to welcome international entrepreneurs to our city and to strengthen the civic bonds between our two continents.

Mr. Minnan-Wong will deliver one of two opening addresses to the assembled guests (title: Why Toronto? The benefits of investing in the City of Toronto). Mr. Minnan~Wong will also participate as a panelist alongside other guests discussing Toronta1s strengths as a center for international investment and a destination of choice for new immigrants.

Dates:

Departure on November 10tti, Turkish Airlines Flight at 10:35pm Returning on November 14th, Turkish Airlines Flight at 13:55pm (same day arrival)

Staying at Ritz Carlton, Istanbul

Costs to be covered by delegation sponsors:

The approximate value of the sponsorship of the Deputy Mayor's travel and accommodation is $4,000 CAD.

Re: Travel Notification to Istanbul, Turkey, November 10-14, 2015

Thank you for contacting me regarding your proposed trip to Istanbul. As you know, under Article ·IV of the Code of Conduct for Members of Council, sponsored travel is a recognized exception to the prohibition on members' accepting gifts and benefits.

Based on the following analysis, I conclude that your proposed trip falls within the recognized exception for sponsored travel.

I have reviewed the invitation documents you provided, including the proposed agenda. It appears that your travel will be sponsored by a "conference, seminar, or event organizer", in this case the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in Canada, the Canadian Turkish Business Council, and the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce, and that you will be speaking at an event in your official capacity as Deputy Mayor. Further, I have reviewed the City's lobbyist registry, and these sponsors are not registered lobbyists.

As your travel is estimated to cost more than $300, please keep in mind that within 30 days of receiving your travel benefit, you will need to file a travel disclosure form with my office, including documents showing the source(s) and cost(s) of your food, lodging, transportation, and entertainment.

In addition, please keep in mind that Article XIII of the Code of Conduct and the City's Lobbying Bylaw (Chapter 140 of the City's Municipal Code) will continue to apply during your trip. Accordingly, you should not engage in communication with any person regarding the matters defined in the lobbying bylaw who is not registered as a lobbyist.

I look forward to receiving your travel disclosure form. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
