Council Candidates
Where do the Candidates in your ward stand on the issues?
It is important to know if the candidate for City Councillor in your ward supports active transportation so that you can to make an informed choice when you vote in the 2006 Toronto municipal election.
TCAT has conducted an Active Transportation survey asking the candidates for city council 19 key questions on concrete and practical steps they can take to improve Active Transportation in Toronto.
Below are links to survey results that show what the candidates in each ward think about Active Transportation and whether or not they will support pedestrian and cycling programs and infrastructure.
The Toronto Bike Plan recommended that a Bikeway Network be built to span the city. This will require bike lane projects to be build in each ward. See the candidates’ answers to Question 19 in the survey to see where they stand on building the projects in their ward. You can see the lists of Bikeway Network projects in your ward at the following page: Ward Info
If you talk with a candidate or attend an all-candidates meeting be sure to ask if they have completed the TCAT survey and ask how they will support Active Transportation if they are elected. If they haven’t completed the survey encourage them to do so.
We have made every effort to contact all candidates by gathering contact info from publicly available sources. Thanks to Dave Meslin of whorunsthistown.to for assistance in this endeavour. In spite of this there are still some candidates for whom we don’t have contact info and were unable to contact, those are indicated on the site. If you are a candidate who has not received a survey please contact us at info@torontocat.ca. If you are a voter and you have contact data for a candidate that we have not sent a survey to please send it to us as well. The TCAT survey results are hosted by BikeToronto.ca.
