Take Note

Welcome! This site is an independent, non-partisan guide to the 2026 Toronto municipal election. It is being built ahead of election day, so some sections are previews and will fill in as candidates register and information is reviewed.

Everything on this site relates to the October 2026 municipal election, when Toronto voters will elect a mayor, 25 ward councillors, and school trustees.

Content here is for voter education only. Placeholder text and sample candidates appear while the guide is under construction.
