Tomorrow is Toronto's Municipal election and the race for Mayor appears to be down to two candidates: David Miller and John Tory. The future of the Toronto Bike Plan will depend on who will be elected Mayor. If you still have not made up your mind as to who to vote for you can look at their responses to the vote2003@BikeToronto.ca Candidate Survey.

Our vote2003@BikeToronto.ca Candidate Survey was sent to all of the Mayoral candidates. We received responses back from 8 candidates and 4 of 5 of the leading candidates. You can see their responses by clicking on their names below. Leading candidates are listed by ranking in the latest polls. The other candidates are listed alphabetically. We have not received a survey back from John Tory's campaign in spite of e-mails and calls to his campaign staff.

The results of this election will have a profound impact on Toronto's future. If implementing the recommendations of the Toronto Bike Plan are to be a part of that future it will require a Mayor who is committed to play a leading role in enhancing this environmentally sustainable form of transportation. The last year has been a disappointment. Indifference or resistance from the Mayors office and councillors has resulted in delays in implementing important projects. The City of Toronto's staff charged with implementing the Bike Plan seem to have their hands tied by either lack of funding, lack of personnel, or a system in the executive offices of City Hall that lacks transparency and openness. Hopefully this election will bring a new era to City Hall.

Read over the surveys make your decision and then go and vote.
