On October 26th, 2026, voters will go to the polls to elect our next city council. It is critical that Toronto elects a strong, engaged and informed council if we are to meet the demands facing our city.
This summer, 11 of the Wards Project teams met with registered candidates to talk about where they stand on issues that matter most to their ward.
Discussion topics were chosen by teams to help candidates connect dots between climate and other issues impacting the ward: affordability, housing, transportation, access to programs, safety/security, overreach of provincial government.
No analysis, rankings nor endorsements of candidates were made.

Connecting constituents with councillors for climate action.
Because a climate plan is a livability plan.
The Wards Project is creating and supporting teams of constituents in each of Toronto’s 25 wards. Ward teams work to ensure the voices of concerned residents are heard, that our city is prepared for the impacts of a changing climate and does its part in mitigating & adapting for the crisis. By creating positive and sustainable relationships with councillors and staff, we are advocating for full funding and implementation of the City’s climate action plan: TransformTO.
TransformTO provides a road map for Toronto to meet climate goals through various mitigation and adaptation measures. Its implementation will also improve the standard of living across each of our diverse neighbourhoods. By addressing issues from affordable public transportation, increased efficiency in buildings, improved green space, flooding and better waste management, TransformTO can help us build a Toronto where we all thrive.
