Issues

According to Nanos Research opinion poll conducted in July 2014 during the election campaign, the main issues concerning the voters were: public transit, high property taxes, jobs and the local economy and traffic.[50]

Public transit

Chow's transit strategy focused on buses under the slogan of "Better bus service. Now." Some of the details included "more comfort and dignity" to bus commuters and adding 10% capacity during peak periods.[51] Rob Ford's plan revolved around subway expansion, building 32 km of subway at an estimated cost of $9 billion.[52] Doug Ford's policy mirrors mayor's pro-subway agenda.[53] Tory presented his SmartTrack plan for transit – a 53-kilometre, 22-stop network that would run on existing commuter rail tracks.[54]

Property taxes

Chow proposed a 1% hike on the levy charged to properties sold for over $2 million.[55] Rob Ford promised to keep property taxes "well below" the rate of inflation.[56] Tory pledged to keep property-tax increases within the rate of inflation.[57]

Jobs and economy

Chow plans to boost economic opportunities by making Toronto the main trading hub for the Chinese currency in North America and Tory considers the mayor's job to "be the principal sales person and ambassador for the city".[58]
