Evidence reviewed on October 4, 2026: the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates, his campaign website and The Local’s Ward 10 candidate tracker. The sitting Ward 10 councillor is Ausma Malik, listed on the City’s Members of Council page, and she is on the list of certified candidates. The 2022 declaration of results for all wards holds no entry under the name Paul Nash.
Gaps. His education, his finance career and his Coast Guard Auxiliary service come from his own website and were not checked with the issuing bodies. The Local also mentions a Toronto Sun interview and 2012 articles on Advisor.ca. voche.me did not open them, and does not repeat them. No social media account was found. He has no public role on record. The questionnaire has not been sent.
