Seven people want to be Pickering's next mayor. Here's where they stand.
A neutral, resident-built comparison of every certified mayoral candidate. No endorsements, no spin — every listed position links directly to the public source it came from, so you can check our work.
Sourced, always
Every position links to where the candidate said it — their platform, a debate, or verified news coverage.
No gaps hidden
When a candidate hasn't stated a public position, we say so — we never guess or infer.
Equal treatment
Candidates are listed alphabetically and held to the same sourcing standard. This site accepts no campaign money or advertising.
