RT @JessicaBellTO: This Monday October 26, I’m supporting @oliviachow to be re-elected as our Mayor. Olivia has made positive changes here in our city: 🏠 Reducing homelessness 🏬 Bringing in stronger renter supports and protections against renovictions 📚 Opening libraries 7-days-a-week 🚇 Freezing fares on the TTC, and introducing fare-capping She is principled, kind, and very hard-working. We’ve seen an improvement in services and her focus on affordability, and I know Olivia will remain focused on those issues in her second term. ✅ Toronto is making progress, with her as our Mayor. Olivia Chow is Number 9️⃣ on your ballot, and in a close election tomorrow your vote matters – for our city.

RT @arabiansilk: olivia chow wants to make the ttc free after 10 trips a week but we believe in fare evasion so what else!

RT @chloebrown4TO: We’re an ableist city, and it’s time we took care of EVERYONE, regardless of age or ability. We need to create a stronger North Etobicoke where residents can not only survive, but thrive. It’s time to make your voice heard. See you at the polls, Ward 1!

Expanded Sunday library service to all 100 branches, giving Torontonians seven-day access to public libraries. This expanded Sunday service to 33 branches that previously weren't open Sundays and extended hours at the other branches.

Scarborough Busway is on track to open more than six months ahead of schedule, with the TTC targeting September 30, 2026. This will provide a dedicated transit corridor replacing the former Line 3/SRT service and improve reliability for Scarborough bus riders.

Established a public-development model for housing on City-owned land, retaining public ownership of the land while developing affordable and purpose-built rental housing.

Froze TTC fares for three consecutive years, keeping transit costs from rising while Toronto continued expanding service. The 2026 budget estimated that the freeze saves a working couple with two children about $1,200 on groceries and transportation costs.

Implemented the Renovation/Renoviction Bylaw, which protects tenants from bad-faith renovictions: Landlords who require tenants to leave for renovations must now obtain a City licence and provide either temporary accommodation or rent-gap compensation, plus moving expenses.

"I WANT TO VOTE! I WANT TO VOTE!" Despite Supreme Court order to extend, polling stations closed anyway as Bolsonarista Electoral Court president Kassio Nunes ignored the order. Millions have been intentionally denied their democratic right to vote.
