Take action
Whatever time you have, an afternoon or an evening a week, there is a way to help get this message to every door in Ward 3. Nothing here commits you to a fixed number of hours.

Nine ways to help
Door-to-door canvassing
Walk a route in pairs with a script and a map. First-timers are trained and never sent out alone.
Two to three hours, usually weekend mornings
Events and setup
Setting up, greeting people, running the sign-in table, packing down after.
A few hours per event
Phone outreach
Calling supporters who asked to be contacted about shifts, signs and events. Never cold-calling.
One or two evenings a week
Lawn signs
Delivering, installing and later collecting signs. Especially useful if you have a truck or van. Note the Town's sign rules below: signs cannot go up before September 8 and must be down by November 2.
Flexible, in bursts
Digital and social
Scheduling posts, writing updates, keeping the site's news and events current.
An hour or two a week, remote
Photography and video
Covering events and canvasses. Consent is collected before anyone is photographed.
Per event
Administration
Data entry, route building, supply runs and the unglamorous half of a campaign.
Flexible
Translation and interpretation
Translating material and joining canvass teams. Punjabi, Urdu, Portuguese and Italian are especially needed.
Flexible
Community outreach
Introducing the campaign to associations, faith communities, sports clubs and business groups you are already part of.
Flexible
Sign rules
Before you put up a sign
The Town sets the rules for election signs, and they apply to whoever owns the property the sign stands on. These are the ones that catch people out.
Not before September 8, 2026
Election signs may only be displayed from the first Tuesday after Labour Day in a regular election year. Putting one up earlier breaches the by-law.
Down by November 2, 2026
Signs must be removed no later than seven calendar days after voting day. The campaign collects them, and you do not have to do it yourself.
Private property, with permission
Signs need the express consent of the property owner. On town property, road allowances, utility poles, trees, mailboxes, benches and waste receptacles they are prohibited outright.
Never in a sight triangle
Nothing may be placed within the sight triangle of an intersection, where it would block a driver's view of oncoming traffic or a pedestrian.
Size limits
No more than 1.5 square metres (16 square feet) in area, and no more than 1.5 metres (5 feet) in height. No permit is required for a compliant sign.
What happens if a sign breaks the rules
A non-compliant sign may be removed immediately without notice, and the offence carries a fine under the Provincial Offences Act.
Summarised from Election Signs By-law 2026-027, Town of Bradford West Gwillimbury. The by-law itself is the authority, not this summary.
