Why not just rededicate the street to another person with the name Dundas?

Nah, it's just a very visible systematic release valve that safely allows the Struggle Sesh Reactionaries to blow off some steam and claim a small victory!
But I agree, it'll probably go between 2-3 committees, before they settle on renaming it after some other 'Dundas'- the problem though is that there isn't really a prominent contextural black/abolitionist figure with the surname 'Dundas', unlike 'King' for instance. Guess they'll need to look a bit harder!

Report recommends Toronto spend $14.3M to prepare city-run homes for possible 2nd wave of COVID-19
Monday, June 15, 2020
A newly released staff report says Toronto’s city-run long-term care homes benefited significantly from access to city resources in managing COVID-19 outbreaks and is recommending that the city spend $14.3 million to implement a number of measures to make sure the homes are prepared to deal with a possible second wave of the illness.
The report by Seniors Services and Long-Term Care (SSLTC) was tabled June 1 and was made public Monday. It sheds light on how the city handled the COVID-19 pandemic at the 10 long-term care homes which it directly operates.
These early outbreaks “provided an opportunity for the division to better understand staffing supports, new outbreak protocols, and supplies that homes would require during an outbreak to maintain resident care standards,” the report states.
Experiences with those outbreaks led to the early adoption of a number of measures, including 14-day staff self-isolation following international travel or exposure to the virus; early adoption of active screening; physical distancing; restrictions to non-essential visitors; making sure that staff could only work at a single location; suspension of group activities; and early adoption of a universal mandatory masking policy.
Staff shortages have been cited as a major issue among Ontario homes that experienced the worst outbreaks.

City Press Release: The Ontario Court of Appeal today issued a judgement that Jim Karygiannis is subject to the penalties imposed by the Municipal Elections Act, which include the forfeiture of his seat as City Councillor for Ward 22. The forfeiture is effective today, June 24.
Mr. Karygiannis improperly filed financial statements for the 2018 election – statements that are required by all candidates for the 2018 election under the Act. The Act allows candidates to spend a maximum amount of money in an election. For Ward 22, in 2018, that total was $61,207.95, with a maximum of 10% – or $6,120.80 – to be spent for “parties and other expressions of appreciation” after voting day. Mr. Karygiannis filed expenses under “parties and other expressions of appreciation” that shows he spent $32,083.50, which, on its face, exceeds the expense limit by $25,962.70.

The wording is a bit odd. I wonder if they mean he can't run if council decides for a by-election, which is likely since we're 2 years and a few months away from the next election.

Of course that is what it means, it's quite clear. He also could not be appointed to replace another Councillor who resigned/died until after next regular election (that's the one in 2022).
