The main contenders Bill Saundercook, Sarah Doucette
NOW’s pick Sarah Doucette
How does a guy who’s been on council for more than a decade go so unnoticed? Saundercook, an early proponent of recycling, scored an A+ on Toronto Environmental Alliance’s report card. But he’s seen his support in his ward erode markedly over the years and has little to show (at least on his website) in the way of policy positions in this runoff. To put it bluntly, Saundercook has name recognition going back to his time on York council to thank for his longevity. Doucette, by contrast, has an enviable record as a local activist going back a decade. She supports Transit City and electric, not diesel, trains in the Junction Triangle.
