Fun (?) fact: Ontario allows property owners and their spouses to vote in municipal elections wherever they own property. But they need to own it personally, not via a corporation or trust.

    Municipal politics in Canada in general are pretty wack because they aren't constitutionally defined as a level of government. Most cities don't even really have councillors with a real platform, they just kinda vote on what the vibes of the councillor are outside of the big three of Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver.
