About 6 years ago, I started a CBRM mayoral ranking, as a brainstorm to promote engagement and predict potential future candidates. By 2020, Amanda McDougall was just a dark horse candidate to unseat Clarke—but I'd flagged her as a top candidate all along the way. She won by over 3,500 votes. The difference today is that I'm the dark horse candidate. The media has started out focusing their attention on two candidates. But there are more than two horses in this race! I urge you to find out as much as you can about your candidates and to make an informed decision. My ranking, delivered by video in this special edition, is below. I think you'll be a bit surprised by the #1 spot. Maybe not. Let's talk about it!

I'm Joe Ward, a candidate for CBRM mayor on October 19th, and I share my ideas and views on the public record for you to find out who I am and what I have to offer. Vote for good plans, not lawn signs.

I'm confident there are multiple ways to work with the province to lower our property taxes on par with Halifax, and spark the housing construction boom we need. When I met with Tim Houston, he told me my message to him about our economic indicators was a big part of what compelled him to offer $15 Million more to the CBRM. Now, we need to get back to that economic discussion, and bring back the $15 million and more. But, this time, we'll be ready to invest it wisely.
