Campaign Questions (top)

Click on a question to see the responses from the candidates.

• For your campaign, will you be accepting donations from corporations or unions? If so, why? If not, why not?
• Do you support Hamilton's LRT proposal? If so, what will you do to ensure Hamilton's success in building LRT? If not, why do you oppose it?
• Is Hamilton doing enough to support and encourage new investment in our older neighbourhoods? If not, what should the City be doing?
• Hamilton's Cycling Master Plan has Council approval. However, the implementation timeline is very long and ward councillors can block individual bike lane projects. Do you support accelerating the completion of a continuous bicycle network and other initiatives like a bike sharing program and better access up and down the Escarpment? Why or why not?
• Council is poised to vote on the Airport Employment Growth District, a 3,000 acre plan to expand the urban boundary around Hamilton International Airport for employment lands. Do you support this plan? Why or why not?
• Some cities have committed recently to publishing their public data in an open format that citizens can directly access. Should Hamilton pledge to become an "open source city"? Why or why not?
• Should we spend the Future Fund to build a Pan Am / Ticat stadium on the CP Rail Yard lands? Why or why not?
• Many observers argue that Council meetings could be more respectful and professional. Do you agree? If so, what will you do to change this?
• The City of Hamilton has committed to doubling transit ridership by 2020. Do you support this goal? If so, how would you realize it?
• Do you believe that poverty is the most critical issue facing Hamilton today? If so, please outline your solutions. If not, please explain your reasons.
• Will your term change people's first impression of Hamilton, and make that first impression more attractive to visitors, students, commuters and newcomers? If so, how?
