If you are a resident of #Toronto, please sign this petition which calls on Councillor Frances Nunziata to RESIGN.

In a forensic audit, the city's Integrity Commissioner found that Nunziata mishandled the personal data of local constituents, and in doing so violated their privacy and illegally used this data in her 2022 re-election campaign.

Nunziata was re-elected by a margin of only 94 votes over left grassroots community organizer Chiara Padovani.

#TorontoPolitics

#Toronto city councillor Frances Nunziata was found by the Integrity Commissioner to have cheated in the last municipal election.

It was a close election where she won by only 94 votes over progressive activist candidate Chiara Padovani.

Frances Nunziata MUST RESIGN so that a free and fair by-election can be called.

If you are a Toronto resident, please sign the petition.
