1926 Toronto municipal election

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Municipal elections were held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on January 1, 1926. Thomas Foster was reelected mayor.

Toronto mayor

Thomas Foster had first been elected to city council in 1891 and was running for his second consecutive term as mayor. He was opposed by former Controller R.H. Cameron, but won easy reelection. The central issue was whether the suburban radial lines, such as the Toronto and York Radial Railway, should be taken away from Toronto Hydro and merged into the Toronto Transportation Commission. While Cameron, the main advocate of the position, lost the election the policy was enacted in 1927.

Results

Samuel Fieldhouse - 916

Board of Control

There was one change in the membership of the Board of Control. Alderman Sam McBride made his first run for the Board and finished second. This pushed William D. Robbins into fifth and off the board.
