TTC CEO Rick Leary resigns after leading transit agency through pandemic and contract talks that avoided a strike this month

After a seven-year tenure in which he led the TTC through its darkest hour, narrowly avoided a transit strike and faced a workplace investigation by his own board, Rick Leary is resigning as head of Toronto’s transit agency.

He made the surprise announcement at a press conference at city hall Thursday, saying he told the TTC board that morning he was stepping down as CEO.
