With Ontario’s municipal elections approaching on October 26th, join UJA for an exclusive evening in midtown Toronto with leaders from CIJA and CJPAC. Get an inside look at the races that matter to our community and how your participation can make a meaningful difference.
Chaired by Mathew Frieberg and Daniel Goldgut, the evening will bring together experts in advocacy, civic engagement, and municipal affairs for a candid look at the final stretch of the campaign. We’ll go beyond the mayoral race to explore key city council contests, why school trustee elections are especially consequential as school boards confront antisemitism and student safety, and how you can have the greatest impact.
For younger voters, these decisions are not abstract. Municipal leaders shape the safety of our public spaces, the schools our families rely on, and the cost of living. Our generation is already feeling the impact of municipal decisions. Now it’s our turn to have a say in them.
Join us on October 14th for dessert, drinks, and a conversation that goes beyond the headlines. Bring your questions, hear from people who know the landscape, and leave ready to make your voice count.
The conversation starts here. What happens next is up to us.
