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.

Statements and reasons for votes

Stated position · Oct 5, 2023

Supported the Event Centre agreement as a downtown investment connecting sports, culture, commercial activity and public amenities.

City: final Event Centre agreements, October 5, 2023 · reviewed Oct 29, 2026

Why this statement was collected

Adds an attributed explanation of the replacement agreement’s anticipated benefits, separate from proof of delivery.

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.
