MUNICIPAL ELECTION 2026

Community priorities

YOUR PRIORITIES

We asked community members what is most needed in our community.  We received 968 responses at 19 community events, and on-line. 

  • Most important issues for our community: support for unhoused neighbours, housing for all, protecting greenspaces, food security, sustainability, and climate action.
  • Most most needed to be a good community to live in: community building (a connected, caring community with community events, activities & spaces), meeting basic needs, nature, caring for one another, and climate action & sustainability.

Read the full report here. 

CANDIDATE PLEDGES

Sixteen local community organizations have asked candidates for Mayor and Council to commit to meaningful, impactful, and do-able candidate pledges on community priorities: housing and supports, climate action, food security, transportation options, support for community-led initiatives, Truth and Reconciliation, and protecting land and water. Read the responses HERE.
