Urban planning graduate running for Mayor on housing, transit and city life.
Roberto Curto is on the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates for Mayor, with a nomination filed on August 11, 2026. His campaign website says he studied environmental studies and urban planning. It lists citywide sixplexes, longer TTC service, permanent supportive housing and a fiscal deal with the province among his ideas.
Roberto Curto 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 August 11, 2026 and gives the campaign website curto.ca. That website carries his name and the line “Authorized by the Roberto Curto for Mayor Campaign”.
His campaign website says he went on to study environmental studies and urban planning and describes himself as a transit rider, avid traveller and city nerd. These are his own statements, and voche.me has not checked them against another source. The Local says his LinkedIn page cites an internship in the office of Councillor Anthony Perruzza and work as a youth program development and operations coordinator for the Conoser Scholarship Fund Group, a charity for Spanish-speaking Canadian youth. voche.me did not open the LinkedIn page and relies on The Local for these two roles. The Local also reports that he has posted in support of the CaféTO and yongeTOmorrow city programs.
CP24 and CTV News Toronto list a 30-second video of him in their Your 30 Seconds series of mayoral candidates, published September 25, 2026. The page holds the video and no transcript, so no statement from it is used here.
Summarized from the campaign’s published profile. These are stated positions, not an assessment of results or a complete platform.
01
Housing
His campaign website proposes allowing sixplexes and other missing-middle housing on residential streets across Toronto, building mixed-use communities around transit, shortening the building process, and partnering with colleges and universities on housing on their land.
His campaign website says he would explore keeping the subway running all night on Fridays and Saturdays, improve streetcars, improve reliability and frequency on the TTC, use bus rapid transit on busy corridors, and bring the Toronto Island ferries into the TTC and PRESTO fare system.
His campaign website proposes permanent housing that connects mental-health, addiction and other supports in one place, more assertive community treatment teams run with Toronto Public Health and hospitals, and moving shelter resources toward permanent supportive housing.
His campaign website says he would look at administration, duplication, procurement and service delivery before reaching for broad tax increases, publish budgets and timelines for projects, explore a Toronto Future Fund, and seek a fiscal deal with the province that includes a share of sales or income taxes.
His campaign website says he would expand permanent pedestrian streets, expand 30 km/h zones downtown and in dense neighbourhoods, allow responsible alcohol consumption in more parks, and simplify the rules for street vending and nightlife venues.
Evidence reviewed on October 4, 2026: the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates, the home page of the campaign website he gave the City, its Ideas page, The Local’s candidate page and the CP24 video page. His plans come from his campaign website and are written here as his campaign’s proposals.
Gaps. The Ideas page refused the saved-page tool, so it was read through a page-summary tool, and the saved copy is a summary and not the full text. His education and the two roles The Local lists were not checked against a school, an employer or the LinkedIn page. The video on the CP24 page was not transcribed. His social media accounts could not be opened. No City or school board role is on his profile. The questionnaire has not been sent.
