About This Campaign
Etobicoke North deserves more.
Ward 1 is home to people who work hard, raise families, build businesses, care for their neighbours, and contribute to this city every day.
But too often, Etobicoke North feels like an afterthought.
We see it in the streets that need attention, the transit that doesn’t always get people where they need to go, the pressure families feel trying to afford their homes, and the neighbourhood spaces that have been waiting too long for investment.
People here know what needs to change. The problem is that too many decisions are made without enough of our voices at the table.
This campaign is about changing that.
I grew up here. And I came back for a reason.
I’m Chloe Brown. I attended Beaumonde Heights as a child and later returned to Etobicoke North to study at Humber College.
I know Rexdale, Thistletown, Kingsview Village, The Elms, Willowridge, Mount Olive, and the communities that make Ward 1 what it is.
I’ve also seen how long some of the same challenges have been allowed to sit unresolved.
That experience is part of why I’m running — but this campaign isn’t about where I went to school or what’s on my résumé. It’s about what that experience can help us accomplish now.
I know how to make complicated systems work.
My career has taken me through workforce development, education, economic policy, and community-building.
I’ve worked with organizations including the Future Skills Centre, Toronto Metropolitan University, and George Brown College, helping connect policy to real opportunities for people.
I also founded Solidarity In Numbers Cooperative because I believe the people who live in a community should benefit when that community grows.
And through my work on the Woodbine Casino Community Benefit Agreement, I helped push for apprenticeships, local hiring, and community investment tied directly to development in this part of the city.
That’s the kind of work I want Ward 1 to expect from City Hall: practical, coordinated, and tied to results people can actually see.
This isn’t about one person fixing everything.
No councillor can do that.
Real progress means residents, community organizations, businesses, City Hall, and our provincial and federal representatives working together instead of operating in separate lanes.
It means listening before decisions are made.
It means making it easier for residents to understand what government is doing and how to hold it accountable.
And it means making sure Etobicoke North receives the attention and investment its communities deserve.
We can expect more from Ward 1.
I ran for mayor in 2022 and 2023 because I believed Toronto needed a different conversation about power, opportunity, and who gets heard.
Those campaigns showed me something important: people have not stopped caring. They’re tired of being asked for their vote without seeing enough change afterward.
Ward 1 doesn’t need another campaign built around one politician.
We need a campaign built around what our neighbourhoods can become — and what we’re willing to do together to get there.
