All Wards Now Live on Torontoist’s Municipal Politics Hub
Foreground: our ward map on the politics hub’s main page. Background: a glimpse at the Ward 28 (Toronto Centre-Rosedale) page.
Last week, we started rolling out Torontoist’s massive new municipal politics hub ward by ward: Etobicoke York first, then North York, then Scarborough. Today, the downtown wards are now online—and so is the entire hub.
If you haven’t had a chance to explore, now’s your best chance so far: the home page features a city-spanning ward map, accompanied by a handy feature that takes your address and spits back out what ward you’re in; a full list of the mayoral candidates, their websites, and links to our articles about them; as well as Torontoist’s collected municipal elections coverage.
But that’s not even close to it: every single ward in the city—all forty-four of them—have their own dedicated pages, with profiles of the wards and their residents, a list of the candidates, a photo gallery, and more coverage. (That coverage, of course, will be updated and added to in the six weeks leading up to the October 25 election, so you’ll want to bookmark the wards you’re interested in and check back in on them regularly.) It’s a great chance to learn more about not only where you live and the people hoping to represent you, but other wards and other council candidates as well.
Go to it!
