UPDATE: Joe Cressy has officially announced he's running for city council, CTV reported Wednesday.

It appears Joe Cressy has made up his mind about running for a spot on Toronto city council.

And unless he's inviting reporters to City Hall Wednesday morning just to tell them he's taking a pass, it seems likely his name will be on the ballot this October.

Cressy, 30, was defeated last month by new Liberal MP Adam Vaughan in the federal byelection to fill Olivia Chow's old seat in Trinity-Spadina. If he runs, Cressy will seek to fill the Ward 20 seat Vaughan vacated to run for Justin Trudeau's team.

Cressy told The Toronto Star weeks ago he was mulling a jump to municipal politics. He said many Vaughan supporters urged him to consider a run.

"I enjoy big national debates about climate change, poverty, inequality and transit but, at the city level, you can create change on those same issues now and there is something tremendously exciting about working with communities to achieve that change," he told The Star.

Both of Cressy's parents — Gordon Cressy and Joan
