About this ward
IncumbentFrances NunziataSeeking re-election
The old City of York and the valleys north of it — Weston, Mount Dennis, Rockcliffe-Smythe, Brookhaven-Amesbury and Keelesdale-Eglinton West. It has one of the lowest median household incomes of any Toronto ward and, with Scarborough Southwest, the lowest average rent. The Eglinton Crosstown's western end runs through it, and Mount Dennis sits at the line's terminus.
