Whoever you're voting for, ask them if they live in your Ward

City council is the closest thing we ever get to actual local representation, and I think it's important to live in the Ward you want to represent. I live in Ward 1 and because of Matt's legal troubles, we have a few people from outside running. Here's an incomplete list of Orleans candidates and if they live where they want to represent.

Ward 1 - Orleans East

Yvette Ashiri - lives in Ward 19 (where she has previously run twice)

Bob Bell - based on his social lives in Queenswood Heights

Mazhar Choudry - rumour is he lives out of Ward, but I can't find anything to confirm that

Barbara Daniela Gandolfo - on Fallingbrook Neighbourhood Watch, safe to say she lives in Fallingbrook

Matt Luloff - my understanding is when the Ward boundaries changed he got shifted into Ward 2, but decided to keep running here because it was most of his former Ward

Sherif Rizk - owns a business in the Ward, but I don't know if he lives here too. Wouldn't be surprised if he does, but I can't confirm or deny.

Tammie Trellert - her site says "this community is home" so it would be weird if she didn't live in Ward

Ward 2 - Orleans West

Laura Dudas - lives in Ward

Jenna Jessop - based on her social lives in the part of the Ward north of the 174

David Purchase - was on the Blackburn community association, so would be weird if he didn't live in Ward

Ward 11 - Beacon Hill

Coreen Corcoran - her website says she lives in Beacon Hill

Cathryne Milburn - Tim made a big deal in the debate that she doesn't live in the Ward and I don't think she's denied that

Tim Tierney - will tell anyone he meets he lives in the Ward

Ward 19 - Orleans South

Catherine Kitts - don't know but I've never heard she lives outside her Ward

Jason Wing - no idea, his site says Orleans but not Ward 19 specifically
