What if you want to
What if you want to get directly involved in municipal politics, rather than just voting for your mayor and ward councillor every four years?
In this crash course on public action, TVO’s Maryanne Oketch offers a few ways that you can get involved and make your voice heard in your local government and city or town council.
The first step to getting involved it to know what’s going on in your community. She discusses the value of attending local council meetings and town halls. Municipal governments normally post council meeting and location times on their websites. And if you can’t attend in person, they are often available for viewing online.
She also suggests contacting your local councillor, and even setting up a meeting with them, since you elected them to represent your needs.
Finally, she explains how you go about speaking in front of your municipal council on an issue that matters to you. This guide will be useful for anyone interested in getting involved in municipal politics in Ontario or elsewhere, and how local democracy works.
