About Rick Lee
Rick Lee appears on the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates for Mayor. A certified candidate is one whose nomination the City Clerk has accepted. The list shows the nomination date as July 15, 2026 and no campaign website.
The City’s declaration of results for the 2023 mayoral by-election lists Rick Lee with 241 votes, in 42nd place of 102 candidates. The Local says that, according to his Instagram and LinkedIn pages, he is a senior program manager at Corus Entertainment. voche.me could not open those pages and relies on The Local for this. The Local’s candidate page, updated as of September 21, 2026, says he has no platform available.
CP24 and CTV News Toronto list a 30-second video of him in their Your 30 Seconds series of mayoral candidates, published in September 2026. The page holds the video and no transcript, so no statement from it is used here. voche.me searched for his name and found no campaign website, platform or news report quoting him that it could confirm belongs to him. Rick Lee is a common name, and no result was used unless a source tied it to this campaign.

Research status
What voche.me has checked
Evidence reviewed on October 4, 2026: the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates, The Local’s candidate page, the City’s declaration of results for the 2023 mayoral by-election, the CP24 video page and the VoteMate page for the 2023 by-election. The VoteMate page shows no profile for him. No platform was found.
Gaps. The City’s list shows no campaign website for him. The LinkedIn page The Local cites could not be opened, so his employer comes from The Local only. A page headed “Rick for 2026” is linked from the 2023 VoteMate listing, but it holds a few headings and no name or platform, so it is not used. The video on the CP24 page was not transcribed. No City or school board role is on his profile. Empty sections record that nothing was verified. They carry no judgment on what he may have said or done. The questionnaire has not been sent.
