@cathyacrowe We absolutely hear you. It's a major issue that needs more attention. We only just started our election outreach, and we have lots more planned. If you'd like to discuss further, send us a DM and I can make sure to connect you to the right people.

@cathyacrowe We are distributing them directly to community and resident leaders, including printed versions. If you have more ideas on how to circulate these fact sheets, please reach out! We absolutely want to get this info out there!

[Social Planning Toronto @planningtoronto]

@cathyacrowe @Mags00021130 We put the fact sheets on their own page because they are dense (especially once our translated versions are ready!) but they're linked in the intro of our budget resources! We will also be launching our full City for All website in the coming weeks with detailed platform
