Former Toronto City Councillor and TTC Chair Karen Stintz joins Janette Burke for a candid Main Episode of Janette’s TV Podcast about leadership, public service, reinvention and the future of Toronto.Karen's new book, Beyond Good Enough: Toronto and the Crisis of Urban Complacency, asks a provocative question: How did Toronto go from being celebrated as one of the world's most livable cities to a city struggling with affordability, safety, infrastructure, governance and declining public confidence?Drawing on more than a decade at Toronto City Hall, including her tenure as Chair of the TTC, Karen examines the decisions and assumptions that shaped modern Toronto and what needs to change if the city is going to reclaim its ambition.But this conversation goes beyond politics.Janette and Karen discuss what leadership really looks like when decisions are difficult, what Karen learned from being a woman in the public eye, the realities of criticism and reinvention, her transition from elected office into nonprofit and community leadership, and why women shouldn't allow one chapter of their career to define the rest of their lives.Today, Karen continues her work in public policy and community leadership while serving as Vice President of Finance and Operations at the Canadian Council on Rehabilitation and Work.Her new book Beyond Good Enough: Toronto and the Crisis of Urban Complacency is available for pre-order now and launches September 15, 2026.WATCH.
