The PRA and RMRA held an all-candidates town hall event on October 2 at Roncesvalles United Church, bringing together more than 300 residents to hear from eight of the ten candidates running in Ward 4. With no incumbent, it’s an open race, and we appreciate the candidates’ willingness to step forward to represent our community on Toronto City Council.
With Toronto’s municipal election approaching, civic organizations are helping voters get informed before casting their ballots. If you weren’t able to attend our town hall, these resources can help you learn about the candidates and make an informed choice on election day.
With candidates for mayor and council making promises on housing, transit, affordability and public safety, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. You will also be voting for School Board Trustee.
Here’s how you can get up to speed before election day.
The Toronto Public Library’s citywide Celebrate Democracy initiative helps residents learn about the election, the candidates and the democratic process.
At its heart is KnowYourVote.to, an interactive website where voters can find candidates running in our Ward and compare their positions on key issues, including housing and public safety.
Vote Compass helps voters compare their views with those of participating candidates for mayor and council. Developed by political scientists at Vox Pop Labs and hosted by the Toronto Star, it is available for Ontario’s 50 largest municipalities ahead of the 2026 municipal elections.
Users answer questions about local issues, including housing, transit, infrastructure and planning, to see how closely candidates’ positions align with their own.
For a full list of candidates for mayor, councillor and trustee, see the City’s 2026 Municipal Election List.
