Explicit approvals to advance the Green Line program. Choices between two rail alignments and a wind-down after another government's funding withdrawal are explained separately and do not automatically count as opposition to rail.
Opposed the reviewed advancement proposalsSupported the reviewed advancement proposals
Reviewed land-use decisions where the direction of residential building permissions is explicit. Broader permission does not establish that a home was built. Contextual amendments do not each become another independent score.
Final readings of specified capital borrowing bylaws. This is a record of support for these particular debt-financed projects, not a general tax, spending or fiscal-conservatism score; utility-supported and tax-supported debt may differ.
Opposed the reviewed borrowing authoritiesSupported the reviewed borrowing authorities
Explicit amendments to Climate and Environment operating allocations. This is separate from formal targets and declarations; multiple amendments within one annual budget share one scoring weight.
Favoured the reviewed funding reductionsFavoured retaining the reviewed allocations
Explicit funding or plan approvals for community-based prevention and wellbeing responses. This measure makes no claim about a member's position on every police budget or the effectiveness of an adopted plan.
Opposed the reviewed community-safety proposalsSupported the reviewed community-safety proposals
Reviewed decisions establishing or rescinding municipal climate targets, strategies and declarations. A declaration vote is not evidence of a particular dollar amount or emissions outcome.
Favoured fewer formal commitmentsFavoured more formal commitments
Specific public financial commitments to the Event Centre project, including the original project and the replacement agreement. These are different proposals across time; a vote is not a generic position on all major projects.
Opposed the reviewed public commitmentsSupported the reviewed public commitments
Reviewed decisions that provide a specific financial or tax benefit for non-market housing. A vote records a choice on that proposal, not an estimate of affordability outcomes or an overall housing ideology.
Opposed the reviewed support proposalsSupported the reviewed support proposals
Only reviewed policy choices are scored. Each independent decision family counts once per measure; choices within one budget or policy package share that family’s weight. statements, promises, absences and contextual amendments do not contribute. Two decisions are the minimum for a position. The sensitivity range shows the score after removing one decision at a time; it is not a statistical confidence interval or a prediction.
Policy choices over time
No policy history collected for this selection
Missing votes and statements remain unknown.
Votes, statements, promises and action milestones retain distinct labels. Dates preserve source precision; undated records appear last. Different proposals can explain different choices; a changed vote is not automatically a changed belief.
Statements and reasons for votes
No sourced statements collected
This is a gap in the collected evidence; it does not establish a person’s views.
Published statements are attributed to their author and kept separate from recorded votes.
Promises and actions
No sourced commitments collected
A missing commitment is not a finding that someone made no promises.
Milestones describe the evidence collected. Adoption, an individual vote and implementation are different events; a missing milestone is not proof that a promise was broken.
Policy leadership
No documented leadership entries collected
Sponsorship and committee appointments require an explicit source; a Yes vote alone does not establish either.
Appointment records do not establish continued service beyond their sourced term. Authorship and sponsorship require explicit documentation.

Vote counts and agreement here use Council meetings, with procedural motions excluded. A missing vote counts as not participating because absences are rarely recorded. *On split (non-unanimous) motions. Rows marked roll calls (and 2017–21 votes before 2021): Before 2021 a member's vote is on record only when Council took a roll call, which the minutes print; those are the votes a member asked to record, mostly contested ones. Committee votes before October 2020 are not included.
