Established in 2001 by the City of Toronto, in partnership with the financial industry, TFSA works on behalf of the entire financial cluster, including its business and educational support sectors. With both the federal and provincial governments now joining the partnership, TFSA has established the Global Risk Institute in Financial Services to leverage the sector’s global reputation for stability, as well as the Centre of Excellence in Financial Services Education to capitalize on Toronto region’s talent advantages.

Past chair of the Rouge Valley Health System and a former fellow with the School of Policy Studies at Queen’s University, Ms. Ecker currently sits on a number of corporate and not-for-profit boards and agencies, including Canadian Medical Association Holdings Inc., the Stratford Shakespearean Festival and the Commonwealth of Learning. She is also a member of the Ontario Finance Minister’s Economic Advisory Panel. A frequent public speaker and media commentator, she was the first woman to deliver a budget in Ontario in 2002. In 2003, Ms. Ecker received a "Canada’s Most Powerful Women: Top 100 Award" from the Women’s Executive Network and the Richard Ivey School of Business. She is also a member of the founding committee for Equal Voice, a national, multi-partisan organization working to elect more women.
