Municipal politics is the last form of government that is not dominated by party politics. It is therefore the only level of politics where candidates must be responsive to the interests of the voters. It is interesting that neither unions nor corporations can contribute to the campaigns of municipal candidates. The will decrease the chances of the NDP financing candidates (as they did in at least one Toronto Ward) in the 2006 election.

I ran as an Independent Candidate federally in 2008. I am now running for Toronto City Council in Toronto Ward 29.
