Rules

• Resolves to the councillor first named by Mayor Olivia Chow as statutory (first) deputy mayor for the 2026-2030 council term. The City of Toronto's council records, or an announcement from the Mayor's office that major outlets report, decide this.
• Non-statutory deputy mayors, such as those representing a part of the city, do not count. A later replacement does not change the result. If the person named is not listed, the answer is "Someone else".
• The closing time is an estimate. If the date of the announcement or appointment changes, trading closes on the new date.
