About Gary McBean
Gary McBean appears on the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates for Toronto District School Board in Ward 12. A certified candidate is one whose nomination the City Clerk has accepted. The list shows the nomination date as August 19, 2026 and gives no campaign website. Ward 12 covers City wards 24 and 25, Scarborough-Guildwood and Scarborough-Rouge Park.
The candidate’s Know Your Vote T.O. page lists no biography, website or social account, and its four answers are marked “Awaiting submission”. voche.me has not contacted the campaign yet. Facts on this page come from the City’s list and that page.

What voche.me has checked
Evidence reviewed on October 4, 2026: the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates, the candidate’s Know Your Vote T.O. page, the TDSB’s trustee wards page, the City Clerk’s 2022 declaration of results, the TDSB’s 2018 to 2022 trustee list and a CBC News report of September 2, 2025. Searches for the name with Toronto, TDSB, Ward 12 and 2026 returned directory pages that repeat the City’s list. Nothing from those pages is used. A check of the City Clerk’s 2022 results found no entry with this name.
TDSB wards changed for 2026. Ward 12 covers City wards 24 and 25, which the City names Scarborough-Guildwood and Scarborough-Rouge Park. In 2022 the board’s wards were numbered differently. The TDSB’s 2018 to 2022 trustee list names the old Ward 19 as Scarborough-Guildwood and the old Ward 22 as Scarborough-Rouge Park. The City Clerk’s 2022 results mark Zakir Patel elected in the old Ward 19 and Anu Sriskandarajah elected in the old Ward 22, and a CBC News report of September 2, 2025 describes them as the trustees for those two areas. Anu Sriskandarajah is also a candidate in Ward 12. Those seats belong to the old wards and are not treated as seats in the new Ward 12. 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 the October 2026 election.
Gaps. No campaign website, social account, platform or news report was found, so priorities, experience and links are empty. Empty means unverified: the candidate may well have statements that voche.me has not found. No board minutes were searched because no public role is on record in the profile. The questionnaire has not been sent.
