Municipalities make decisions every day that impact the lives of urban Indigenous people - more than most realize. With Ontario’s municipal elections coming up on October 26, 2026, we’re working with Friendship Centres to mobilize voters, spotlight Indigenous candidates, and make sure that urban Indigenous priorities are seen, understood, and reflected in local decision-making. #UrbanIndigenous #FriendshipCentres #IndigenousVoices #MunicipalElections #CivicEngagement
