Neighbours telling neighbours
This campaign doesn’t have a big budget and doesn’t need one. It needs signs on lawns, conversations on sidewalks, and people who make sure their neighbours mail their ballot back.
Most helpful thing you can do
Request a lawn sign
Signs go up after Nomination Day and come down within three days of the election, as the Town’s by-law requires. We’ll deliver and install it, and pick it up afterwards.
A few hours goes a long way
Volunteer
Tell us what you’re up for. Even an hour of door-knocking on your own street moves more votes than anything money can buy.
Three minutes, no commitment
Other ways to help
Remind people to mail it
The single biggest risk in a vote-by-mail election is a ballot that never gets mailed back. Ask three people you know whether theirs has gone in.
Share the plan
Send someone the nine-point plan or the downtown page. Most residents have never seen a candidate’s platform in writing.
Introduce Lou
Know a business owner, a service club or a neighbourhood group that should hear from him? Make the introduction.
Chipping in helps too
Signs, printing and postage are the whole budget. Contributions are governed by Ontario’s Municipal Elections Act – here’s exactly how it works.
