Toronto municipal electionNeil Simon appears on the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates for Councillor in Ward 9 Davenport. A certified candidate is one whose nomination the City Clerk has accepted. The list shows the nomination date as June 12, 2026 and the campaign website votensimon.ca.
voche.me read his campaign website through a summary tool, because a direct request returned only a page title and no text. The summary says the site calls him “a community leader, pastor, entrepreneur” and says he has 15 years of community service, has consulted more than 1,000 neighbours and has led 10 community projects. These are the campaign’s statements, and voche.me did not check them.
The Local’s Ward 9 tracker, updated as of September 21, 2026, says little information about Neil Simon is available online. It reports that in 2025 he ran in the federal election as an independent candidate in Etobicoke North and finished sixth of six. voche.me did not check that result with Elections Canada.
Summarized from the campaign’s published profile. These are stated positions, not an assessment of results or a complete platform.
His website lists five commitments: protect renters and speed up genuinely affordable homes, complete streets with better lighting and traffic calming on busy corridors, support local businesses, more parks and tree cover, and open budgets with real consultation.
These are the campaign’s own statements, read through a summary tool. The page names no figures or timelines.
Evidence reviewed on October 4, 2026: the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates, his campaign website (read through a summary tool, not as full text) and The Local’s Ward 9 candidate tracker. The sitting Ward 9 councillor is Alejandra Bravo, listed on the City’s Members of Council page. The 2022 declaration of results for all wards holds no entry under the name Neil Simon.
Gaps. The summary tool’s account of his website was not checked against the full page. His 2025 federal candidacy comes from The Local and was not checked with Elections Canada. A video and a podcast episode that came up in a name search were not opened. He has no public role on record. The questionnaire has not been sent.
