Ward 6, it’s time to put your questions to the candidates vying to represent us for the next four years! Jointly hosted by three neighbouring community associations, Strathcona Christie Aspen Community Association, West Springs/Cougar Ridge Community Association and the Coach Hill / Patterson Heights, this friendly debate with a yummy twist!

Many family debates take place at the kitchen table, and in that spirit, we’re putting our candidates’ culinary skills to the test! Each candidate is invited to bring waffles, homemade or purchased in Ward 6, that we get to sample and vote on in a blind taste test! We’ll see if your tastebuds match your political tastes and maybe you will cast a vote for someone you would never have imagined voting for! The candidate whose waffles receive the most votes is declared the waffle winner and gets bragging rights until the election But it’s not all just fun and waffles. We are also looking forward to an honest, in-depth discussion about the issues that are most important to residents of Ward 6. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions of all the candidates*.

Food is a powerful tool for helping bring families and communities together, so let’s meet at the table and learn more about the people behind the issues in this municipal election.

Swap high-quality fashion, connect with others, and support a great cause!

✨ How It Works ✨

🌿 Clean out your closet. Choose your best pieces that you no longer wear but are still in great condition — the kind of items you’d happily gift to a friend.

👜 Check in at the Reception. When you arrive, hand over your items at the reception table. Each piece will be inspected, and you’ll receive a ticket for every item that meets our quality standard. We’ll then hang or display the clothing by category for others to “shop.”

👗 Fresh finds all day. New pieces will continue to arrive throughout the event, so the selection keeps changing. Stay as long as you like!

☕ Enjoy the community vibe. Sip some refreshments, browse the racks, and connect with like-minded people who love fashion and sustainability.

✅ Do Bring

1 to 10 items of men’s or women’s clothing in good, clean condition.

Any season, any brand, all sizes shoes, accessories, hats, bags, jewelry.

School uniforms are welcome

❌ Don’t Bring

More than 10 items

Clothing that is damaged, ripped, stained, or excessively worn/peeling

Undergarments, swimsuits, bathing suits, nightwear/pajamas

Kid’s clothing (except school uniforms)

✨ Anything left at the end of the event will be donated to local thrift stores.We’ll be accepting clothing for all seasons, making this a safe, fun, and inclusive swap for everyone.

Please share this event with your friends and family to help promote sustainable fashion. We can’t wait to see you there!
