The only people officially registered are Tory, James Sears (a perennial Nazi) and Sarah Climenhaga.
No one is officially registered quite yet - that doesn't happen until May.

Mammoliti won’t say if he’ll run for mayor if he loses provincially but says he will run for council in some capacity. Election period changes this year make this possible
And stomp on Randy's time to shine? Not a chance.I wonder if Mikey Ford could run this year? His name alone can get him at least 30% of the vote. He has the Ford brand and the populist appeal, and isn't he a tad more 'soft' on social issues? Plus, he'd have the endorsement of the (probable) Premier.

Not a shock on several levels. Hope he got a nice audience bump tho.BREAKING: Journalist and activist Desmond Cole will not run for mayor, he announces on his radio show on Newstalk 1010.
When he was elected I thought he would not stand again as he wouldn't take the hassle, but the Ford-Trump era of media management and his successful courting of the suburbs - or at least their councillors, plus his incumbent factor (retooling his 250K follower mayoral account into a campaign account) and his lock up of Bay St makes this a walkover.Six people are registered to run for mayor now and five of them stand no chance of winning. Tory is going to run away with this.
And his daughter is running again in midtown. A reliable vote in the bank, albeit now out of 47. (at least until she runs for the former seat of Joe Oliver, Former Minister of Finance and Member of Parliament, Eglinton-Lawrence)Email supporter mailout from the Tory campaign. with endorsements, c/o @Goldsbie
