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

• Do you support the city's plan to build an east-west light rail transit (LRT) line with full capital funding from the Province?
• Do you support converting more of Hamilton's one-way thoroughfares into complete, two-way streets that support walking, cycling and transit?
• The City's Cycling Master Plan is up for review. Do you support improving the plan to speed the installation of cycling facilities and provide more high-quality protected infrastructure like the new Cannon Street cycle track?
• The Province plans to allow municipalities to use ranked ballots in future elections. If so, will you vote to adopt ranked ballots in Hamilton?
• Do you support an expanded role for Hamilton to provide more affordable housing? If so, what should Hamilton do?
• Do you support implementing a Vision Zero for Hamilton, with a goal of eliminating all pedestrian and cyclist deaths on our streets? If so, what specific actions would you take to implement this policy, and if not, why?
• Do you believe City Hall should be more accessible to Hamilton residents? If so, what steps would you take to achieve this?
• The Province has shelved a proposal to build a mid-peninsula highway from Niagara Falls or Fort Erie around Hamilton to connect with Hwy 401 or 407 north of Burlington. Do you agree with the Province's decision to put its development on hold?
• Do you support the use of participatory budgeting to allow ward residents to propose and vote on local capital projects?
• Do you believe Hamilton should do more to protect and enhance its built heritage?
