Thinking about running for Municipal Council — or just curious about how local politics really works? **Your City, Your Voice is a free community initiative helping people in Greater Sudbury** explore what it takes to run for municipal office in the 2026 election. Through workshops, resources, and community connection, we’re working with other local organizations to make local politics more accessible, approachable, and representative of the communities it serves.
