Let’s be honest, between candidates that drop out and ones that flip-flop—and not to mention a very loud-mouthed current mayor—it can be difficult to keep up Toronto’s current municipal election.
Enter handsomely designed website Pollenize.
According to its creators, “Pollenize is a non-partisan, apolitical organization seeking to provide residents of Toronto with the most accurate election information possible.” The group’s website does just that, and does so in a quick and efficient manner. In the span of less than ten minutes it’s possible to become acquainted with all the major candidates and their respective stances on Toronto’s major issues. Sorry, Sarah Thomson, no fringe candidates here. Best of all, those looking to dig deeper can do so through the website’s footnotes.
Now there’s no reason not to be an engaged citizen this October.
