"Mayor Bill de Blasio gave New York’s museums and arts groups an ultimatum
<https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/19/arts/design/new-york-cultural-plan-museums.html>
last month: Take steps to make your staff and leadership more diverse, or
risk losing part of your city funding."

I cannot harass the City of Toronto to follow New York's lead (I work at
the City). But... you could!
