01 / Introduction

## About Ida Li Preti

Ida Li Preti appears on the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates for Toronto Catholic District School Board in Ward 3. A certified candidate is one whose nomination the City Clerk has accepted. The list shows the nomination date as July 9, 2026 and a campaign website, idalipreti.com. Ward 3 covers City ward 7, Humber River-Black Creek.

The City Clerk’s results for the Toronto Catholic District School Board list her first of 2 candidates in Ward 3 on October 24, 2022 with 3,861 votes, marked elected. The Emery Village Voice reported in 2022 that she was re-elected as trustee for Ward 3, Humber River-Black Creek, and the Downsview Advocate’s 2026 guide says she has served as Ward 3 trustee since 2018. Her campaign website gives the same start year and lists chair roles on the board’s Student Achievement and Well-Being and Governance and Policy committees. Those details are her own statements and voche.me opened no board minutes to check them.

The Ontario Liberal Party’s own page of February 13, 2021 says Liberals in Humber River-Black Creek nominated her as their candidate for the next provincial election. voche.me states no provincial result because it found no Elections Ontario results page it could read.

Research status

## What voche.me has checked

Evidence reviewed on October 4, 2026: the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates, the home page of her campaign website, her Know Your Vote T.O. page, the City Clerk’s 2022 declaration of results, the Emery Village Voice’s 2022 article, the Downsview Advocate’s 2026 candidate guide, the Ontario Liberal Party’s page of February 13, 2021 and The Local’s article of August 24, 2026 on trustee candidates. Her trustee role comes from the City Clerk’s results. Her committee roles, results and priorities come from her campaign website and are attributed to it in the sentences that carry them.

The City Clerk’s 2022 results for the Toronto Catholic District School Board list Ida Li Preti elected in Ward 3 with 3,861 votes and Gregory Rodriguez second with 1,272. The Emery Village Voice reported in 2022 that she was re-elected as trustee for Ward 3, Humber River-Black Creek, and the Downsview Advocate’s 2026 candidate guide lists her as seeking re-election. The TCDSB’s trustee pages loaded only a browser check and its meeting site answered with an access error, so no board record was read. The Local reports that the province took over the TCDSB in June 2025 and that, while the board is under provincial supervision, the job of Catholic board trustees is limited to denominational matters. voche.me found no board page that compares the 2022 and 2026 TCDSB ward boundaries. Her site describes Ward 3 as Humber River-Black Creek in 2026 and the Emery Village Voice describes it the same way in 2022, so the 2022 result is stated for Ward 3 as numbered in 2022. Her campaign website says she first took office in 2018, and voche.me gives no start date because no board or City page opened states one.

Gaps. Her Know Your Vote T.O. page marks all four questions “Awaiting submission”. Her Instagram page returned a summary only, so nothing from it is used. No board minutes were read, so no recorded vote is cited. The Ontario Liberal Party’s page is a party’s own statement and records the nomination. The questionnaire has not been sent.
