Yes. Toronto needs more housing in every ward, but growth must be responsible and supported by adequate infrastructure. New development should include affordable and family-sized homes, protect existing residents from displacement, and honour the needs of local communities.

Yes. Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and compassion. When safe, accessible and appropriate indoor space is available and meets the individual’s needs, the City should support the transition indoors while ensuring public parks remain safe and accessible for everyone.

No. Transportation improvements need sustainable funding, but additional charges should not increase costs for residents already struggling with affordability. Toronto should prioritize reliable transit and pursue fair funding options that do not disproportionately burden working families.

Yes. Toronto cannot continue deferring critical repairs to roads, sidewalks and other infrastructure. The City should identify fair, responsible revenue options while continuing to pursue provincial and federal funding and protecting residents already struggling with affordability.

Yes. Residents deserve transparency about how public dollars are being spent. Major capital projects should have clear, accessible information on budgets, timelines, delays and performance so residents can track progress and hold the City accountable for results.

Public safety requires prevention as well as enforcement. I would prioritize mental-health and crisis response, addiction supports and youth intervention to address problems before they escalate, while ensuring police and other emergency services are available when needed.

Toronto needs effective policing alongside stronger prevention and community supports. Police should focus on serious crime and public safety, while we strengthen community-based mental health and crisis response, youth intervention and prevention services.

Technology can support public safety, but its use must be balanced with residents’ privacy and individual rights. Toronto should establish clear rules on data collection, access, retention and sharing, with strong oversight and accountability to prevent misuse.

Reliable transit is essential for residents getting to work, school, appointments and essential services. I would prioritize more frequent and dependable service, particularly in underserved communities, while continuing to invest in maintenance and responsible transit expansion.

Transit, walking and cycling should generally be prioritized so more people can move safely and efficiently. However, street planning must always protect accessibility and emergency access and consider the needs of businesses, deliveries, trades and residents who rely on vehicles.

Public delivery: Toronto needs more housing that people can actually afford. I would prioritize affordable and supportive housing for families, seniors, people with disabilities and residents at risk of displacement, while continuing to support responsible housing growth across the city.

Toronto should use City land, funding and incentives to expand affordable and supportive housing through strong partnerships with non-profit and community housing providers, while also maintaining a direct role where City ownership can protect long-term affordability.

The greatest density should be located near rapid transit and major corridors where residents can more easily access jobs and services. Growth must be matched with infrastructure, affordable and family-sized housing, and protections against displacement of existing communities.

Toronto should reduce unnecessary delays and make routine approvals more efficient while maintaining strong standards for safety and responsible development. Faster approvals can lower costs and help deliver housing sooner without sacrificing the needs of existing communities.

Toronto needs stronger project management, procurement and oversight to keep major projects on time and on budget. Residents deserve clear accountability for delays and cost overruns and confidence that public dollars are being managed responsibly.

Toronto should maintain strong internal capacity to deliver reliable public services and remain directly accountable to residents. External expertise can be used where appropriate, but essential services should not be outsourced simply to reduce short-term costs.

Toronto must balance affordability with the need to maintain reliable public services. Property-tax revenues should generally keep pace with inflation and population growth, while the City finds efficiencies and pursues other fair revenue sources before placing additional pressure on residents.

Toronto should seek revenue from growth and real-estate activity while ensuring development charges do not undermine housing affordability. We need a balanced approach that funds infrastructure and services without placing disproportionate new costs on working families.

Toronto needs a reliable, dedicated approach to maintaining roads, sidewalks, facilities and other critical infrastructure. Any new revenue should be fair and transparent, reserved for necessary repairs, and designed to minimize the impact on residents already facing affordability pressures.

Toronto should work constructively with the Province to secure funding and advance priorities that benefit residents, while continuing to advocate firmly for Toronto’s needs. Effective leadership means building partnerships without compromising the interests of our communities.

If strong mayor powers are used, they should be exercised cautiously and transparently. Housing is an urgent priority, but decisions must still consider affordability, infrastructure, community needs and the voices of residents affected by development.

Ward 7 needs more housing and investment, but growth must benefit existing residents. I support affordable and family-sized housing, responsible development and local jobs, while ensuring our streets, roads, parks and public spaces are safe, clean and well maintained.

Voters should see measurable improvements in Ward 7 in their daily lives. More affordable and family-sized housing, safer and better-maintained streets and public spaces, increased local employment and youth opportunities, and stronger access to services for seniors and people with disabilities.

Toronto should complete its approved cycling projects while ensuring future changes are guided by safety, local needs and evidence. Cycling infrastructure should improve mobility without creating unnecessary barriers for transit, accessibility, businesses or residents who rely on vehicles.

People have a right to peaceful protest, but that right should be balanced with public safety and access to essential services. Clear, fair rules should protect demonstrations while keeping hospitals, emergency routes, transit and other critical services accessible.

Technology should make City services easier and faster for residents to access. Toronto should improve digital tools for permits, licences, payments and service requests while ensuring residents who are seniors, have disabilities or face digital barriers can still access in-person support.

A strong business climate depends on strong communities. Toronto should improve housing, reliable transportation, public safety and infrastructure while supporting local businesses. When residents can afford to live, work and move around the city, businesses and communities can thrive together.

Toronto attracts investment when it is a city where people want and can afford to live and work. We should strengthen housing affordability, transportation, public safety, infrastructure and quality of life, creating conditions where businesses, workers and communities can succeed.

Residents deserve clean, safe and well-maintained neighbourhoods. Toronto should prioritize road and pothole repairs, sidewalks, snow clearing, clean parks and public spaces, and reliable maintenance while continuing to invest in improvements and activities that bring communities together

Arts and culture strengthen communities and create opportunities for local artists and youth. Toronto should invest in grants, affordable cultural spaces and accessible City facilities so diverse communities can create, perform, celebrate their cultures and contribute to the city’s economy.

If autonomous taxis operate in Toronto, accessibility and equitable service must come first. Services should accommodate people with disabilities, meet clear safety and service standards, and provide fair geographic coverage so communities are not left behind.
