For those of you confused by the plethora of candidates in Toronto’s upcoming election, Women in Toronto Politics has developed an easy to understand Position Primer. Simply type in your postal code and you’ll be able to instantly compare candidates’ positions in your ward on a number of key issues:
- Childcare
- Transportation
- Employment
- Affordable housing
- Newcomers
- Poverty
- Public services
- Taxation
- Infrastructure
- A key ward issue
The Position Primer is based on a survey that asked candidates for their positions on 10 issues in 350 characters or less. The unedited answers are yet another method for residents to learn about the key issues in their local areas before election day, October 27th.
