A certified candidate is one whose nomination the City Clerk has accepted. The list shows the nomination date as July 10, 2026 and a campaign website on Wix. His campaign website says he is an entrepreneur and a lifelong learner, that he attended Toronto Metropolitan University, and that he lives, works and studies in Ward 7 and calls University-Rosedale home. His Know Your Vote T.O. answers call him a business owner. These are his own statements, and voche.me did not check them with any school or employer. The City Clerk’s declaration of results for October 24, 2022 lists Axel Arvizu ninth of 14 candidates for City Councillor in Ward 11 University-Rosedale, with 463 votes. The 14 declared totals add up to 24,351 votes, so his share was 1.9 percent, calculated by voche.me from those figures. Dianne Saxe was elected with 8,614 votes. A Met Radio (CJRU) article dated September 9, 2022 names Axel Arvizu as an entrepreneur running to be the Ward 11 University-Rosedale councillor, and that is the source that ties the 2022 entry to him. The article describes him as a manager for a home building company and a longtime resident of the ward, and quotes his platform of fiscal responsibility and community safety. TDSB wards changed for 2026. Ward 7 covers City wards 11, 12 and 13, which the candidates’ own sites call University-Rosedale, Toronto-St. Paul’s and Toronto Centre. The TDSB’s trustee wards page says that during provincial supervision the powers of trustees rest with the provincially appointed Supervisor, that trustees have no official duties with the board at this time, and that this also applies to trustees elected in October 2026.

He holds no public office on any record voche.me opened. The 2022 result comes from the City Clerk’s document and is tied to him by the Met Radio article. Gaps. An X account named AxelArvizuTO came up in a search. Its bio says its owner is running for University-Rosedale Ward 11 councillor, and one post voche.me saw is dated February 16, 2023. The account is not linked from his campaign site, the City’s list or his Know Your Vote T.O. page, so voche.me could not confirm it is his and uses nothing from it. His Instagram search result opened as a login page. His Know Your Vote T.O. answers are his own statements. No board minutes apply because he holds no board role. The questionnaire has not been sent.
