There are many candidate trackers out there right now for the Toronto Municipal election using AI & today
The Local came out with one, but this one is written BY REAL PEOPLE!
Thanks to the team doing the work, it takes a lot of time and energy! #TOpolithelocal.to/candidate-tracke…
The Toronto Public Library is one of our city's most well-loved and trusted public institutions, so it makes perfect sense that they made a page to provide candidate info straight from the source.
And they've got some great issues briefs too.

Thank you to @torontolibrary for creating a space on the web dedicated to asking all municipal candidates big questions, important to TO residents! Ward 2 can learn more about my ideas and looking forward to hear from other local candidates #TOpoliknowyourvote.to/races/ward-2…

The Women Of Ward 2 Virtual Event is going to be postponed by 1 week & take place on Thur Oct 1 at 7pm. This is due to a local TCDSB Candidate Townhall now scheduled for the original time, so in the spirit of democracy; I want to alleviate the conflict!

New in The Etobicoke Voice tonight

A local education advocacy group is collecting your concerns from the first week of class, the link is in the post.

Just to be clear, only 1 Councillor (Councillor Holyday in #Etobicoke Centre) clearly argued against the school nutrition program, saying that it would teach children to rely on the govt for their basic needs & went on to vote against it. Remember this fact when you vote #TOpoli
"This fall, the city will feed 330,000 children! Every child in every school! Because when you're hungry, you're not learning," says Chow, touting her school food program expansion.
"I think that was a good policy, and I'd be happy to continue it," says Bradford.
And I have heard the roll out is not perfect, but new programs can take time to perfect. I would love to chat more with SNP coordinators to know what they need, speaking as a former coordinator myself!
The next council term will be crucial for the Science Centre and the original site. So much time & energy has been put into this work but so much more will be needed. All councillor candidates should also be asked what their stance on the future of 770 Don Mills would be #TOpoli
"I'll be honest, I can't think of a single file where you've actually effectively been able to push back against the premier doing exactly what he wants to do," says Bradford to Chow, naming the Science Centre, Ontario Place, bike lanes and the island airport.
FYI #Etobicoke its that time of year again to race for the programs you are looking for! Tomorrow morning at 7 am the system opens for us in Etobicoke. Let me know how it works for you because over the years the system has felt more like a game of roulette for some #TOpoli
The west end is full of activity too at Taste Of The Kingsway; no matter what a person's political opinion is - this weekend is a great example of what honest fun can be all about! Street parties are so needed in the city!
I’ve been taking a lot of photos while walking around #Etobicoke Centre lately. Not the usual campaign photos! Crosswalks. Traffic signals. Sidewalks. Speed-limit signs. It got me thinking what actually makes an intersection feel safe?

Summer vacation is over, by-elections are done, & now we are in full-swing for the municipal election! Our team has been going all summer but we would love to add more friends to the team, we are less that 30 days from advance voting!

As Labour Day comes to an end, I’m thinking about the people who keep our communities going every day.
The people who worked today, the people who finally got a day off, & the people whose work often goes unseen but makes an enormous difference in our lives. /1
Today is a good reminder that behind every community are people who work, care, build, teach, serve, create and contribute. I hope you had a chance to slow down today, enjoy some down time; take a moment to appreciate the workers that help make our communities what they are.
Outside of the campaign, I still operate The Etobicoke Voice and this weekend we put out our second podcast (we are adding new dimensions of how we share the voices and ideas coming out of the west end)!
