Principles For New Relationships
In order to prevent spurious proposals, cities that are candidates for a relationship with Toronto must satisfy the following conditions:
- there can be no more than one relationship in any region
- the candidate city cannot have a relationship with another Canadian city
- community groups must raise funds to support exchanges with Friendship Cities to which they have committed
- the federal government must have a relationship with the country in which the candidate city is located
Proposals for new candidates are submitted to the General Manager of Economic Development; all proposals are analyzed and compiled into a yearly recommendation which coincides with the city's budget process.

Famous quotes containing the word principles:
“Every political system is an accumulation of habits, customs, prejudices, and principles that have survived a long process of trial and error and of ceaseless response to changing circumstances. If the system works well on the whole, it is a lucky accident—the luckiest, indeed, that can befall a society.”
—Edward C. Banfield (b. 1916)
