Toronto municipal election, 2006

The 2006 Toronto municipal election took place on 13 November 2006 to elect a mayor and 44 city councillors in Toronto, Ontario. In addition, school trustees were elected to the Toronto District School Board, Toronto Catholic District School Board, Conseil scolaire de district du Centre-Sud-Ouest and Conseil scolaire de district catholique Centre-Sud. The election was held in conjunction with those held in other municipalities in the province of Ontario (see Ontario municipal elections, 2006). In the mayoral race, incumbent mayor David Miller was re-elected with 57% of the popular vote.

There were 38 candidates running for Mayor of Toronto and 238 candidates running for 44 city councillor positions. To date, this represents the largest number of candidates to ever run in a Toronto municipal election. In contrast to the previous election (which had two acclamations), no candidates were unopposed.

Provincial legislation passed in May 2006 extended municipal council terms in Ontario to four years rather than three. The council elected in 2006 will thus serve until 2010 rather than 2009.[1]
