Candidate for Councillor - Ward 3 (Etobicoke-Lakeshore)

In their own words

This candidate hasn’t listed a campaign website or social account with the Town. That says nothing about them as a candidate — it just means less of their material is published online for us to summarise.

Where they stand

Every candidate in this race is shown against the same 16 issues, in the same order, whether or not we’ve found something for each one. Why we do it this way.

Housing

Will I be able to afford to live here?

Mihaela Andrei wants growth to arrive with infrastructure — genuine affordable units and gentle density.

  • She backs genuine affordable units, not token concessions, and gentle density that fits the streets.
  • She opposes building ahead of transit, schools and roads, and wants protections so longtime residents can afford to stay.

“I'll fight for development that arrives with the infrastructure to support it, not years behind it. That means genuine affordable units, not token concessions; gentle density that fits the streets it's built on; and protection for the people who built these neighbourhoods so they can afford to stay in them. I'm not against building. I'm against building ahead of the transit, the schools and the roads.”

Emergency services

When I call for help, will it come fast enough?

Mihaela Andrei wants community safety through investment: lighting, maintained spaces, community policing.

  • She calls for better lighting in parks and underpasses, maintained public spaces and community policing that knows the neighbourhood.
  • She also wants properly funded mental health and addiction services so problems aren't pushed onto sidewalks.

“Safe streets start with investment. Better lighting in our parks and underpasses, maintained public spaces, community policing that knows the neighbourhood, and properly funded mental health and addiction services, because underfunding those services is what pushes the problem onto our sidewalks.”

Transit

Can I get where I need to go without driving?

Mihaela Andrei pushes to build the Park Lawn GO station and fund the Legion Road extension.

  • She wants Park Lawn GO built 'rather than re-announced' and the Legion Road extension funded.
  • She seeks real relief on Lake Shore Boulevard and Park Lawn, and bus service that actually shows up for Alderwood and Stonegate–Queensway.

Environment

Is the candidate protecting the nature we live in?

Mihaela Andrei pledges to protect public access to the lakefront and close waterfront-trail gaps.

  • She says the shoreline belongs to all of Ward 3's eleven neighbourhoods.
  • She wants the remaining gaps in the waterfront trail closed and parks held to a visitor-worthy standard.

“The shoreline is why so many of us are here. I'll protect public access, close the remaining gaps in the waterfront trail, and hold our parks to the standard we'd want if we were showing them off to a visitor, because we are, every summer weekend.”
