Donate
Support the campaign.
Ontario law caps what any one person can give a municipal candidate at $1,200, and bans corporate and union money outright. So a ward campaign gets funded by its neighbours or it doesn't get funded. What you give here pays for the postcards, the lawn signs, and the door-knocking that put this in front of Ward 5.
How donations work under Ontario law
- Individuals only. Only individuals residing in Ontario may donate. Corporations and unions are not permitted to donate.
- $1,200 maximum per candidate. This is the legal limit set by the Municipal Elections Act.
- $5,000 aggregate across Guelph candidates. No individual can donate more than $5,000 in total across all Guelph municipal candidates in 2026.
- Disclosure of donations over $100. The campaign is legally required to disclose the name, address, and amount of every contribution above $100 in its financial filings.
- No tax receipts. Municipal campaign contributions in Ontario are not tax-deductible.
- Refunds. If you donate and later determine you have exceeded the aggregate cap or are otherwise ineligible, contact us immediately and we'll arrange a refund.
