CKMS News -2026-10-24- Kitchener Voters Stayed Home in 2022. Is It Any Different This Time?
Eren Yoruk
Kitchener, ON – In Kitchener, only about one in five eligible voters cast a ballot in the 2022 municipal election. With Election Day approaching on October 26, the city is introducing new ways to encourage more residents to vote.
A total of 8,208 people voted during the advance voting period between October 8 and 20, an increase of 42 per cent compared with the previous municipal election.
Amanda Fusco, Kitchener’s director of legislated services, said voter turnout depends on several factors, including voter fatigue, campaign activity and public awareness of municipal government.
“Voter turnout is so complex,” Fusco said.
This year, the city introduced new voting options, including home voting visits, advance voting at retirement homes and long-term care facilities, drive-thru voting and “shop and vote” locations at Fairview Park Mall and Kitchener Market.
Fusco said drive-thru voting attracted just over 1,000 voters over two days, while around 1,000 people voted at Fairview Park Mall. Another 250 cast ballots at Kitchener Market.
Feedback on drive-thru voting was positive, with residents citing convenience and accessibility. However, the city has no specific voter turnout target for 2026, beyond hoping to improve on the previous election.
Fusco said municipal decisions directly affect residents’ neighbourhoods, parks, roads and libraries.
“We want everyone to make their mark,” she said.
Eligible Kitchener residents can vote on October 26 at any of the 33 voting locations within their ward. Voters must bring identification showing their name and current address.

CKMS News -2026-10-17- Kitchener Helps Local Businesses Pursue Government Contracts Through Procurement Sessions
Eren Yoruk
Kitchener, ON – The City of Kitchener has brought local businesses together with federal and provincial procurement experts through a two-day “Buy Canada–Buy Ontario” initiative at Kitchener City Hall.
The sessions aimed to help businesses access an estimated $300 billion in annual government procurement opportunities amid growing international trade challenges, according to Senator Sandra Pupatello.
Mayor Berry Vrbanovic said local companies need the information and resources to compete for government contracts at all levels.
“It’s really all about making sure that businesses have the information they need to compete on business opportunities, whether they’re at the local, provincial, or national level,” Vrbanovic said.
Pupatello said businesses outside major administrative centres may overlook opportunities to supply governments with goods and services.
“If you don’t live in a capital region, you don’t tend to think of what the government buys that you can actually offer,” she said, encouraging local suppliers to explore public-sector contracts.
With tariffs creating challenges for traditional manufacturing sectors, the initiative focused on helping local businesses identify new opportunities through government procurement.

CKMS News – 2026-10-10- The Canadian Dream and the municipal election
CKMS News – 2026-10-10- The Canadian Dream and the municipal election
by: dan kellar
Kitchener, ON – While folks are still deciding who to support in the municipal election on October 26th a coalition of actors and advocates will use theatre to drive democratic participation. There will be a performance of “The Canadian Dream”, followed by a meet and greet for candidates from Kitchener’s ward 9, regional council, and mayoral races.
The free event is taking place on Friday October 16th at 6:30 pm in the Pavillion in Willow River Park, and is being co-hosted by local theatre troupe Outta Work Actors, the Social Developement Centre of Waterloo Region, the Festival of Neighbourhoods, and Indigenous Creatives United.
The play itself is an “interactive performance that bridges real lived experiences of homelessness in Kitchener with community civic participation.”, and was developed over the past several years by the Outta Work Actors through the Kaleidoscope Two Minute Play Laboratory.
Following the performance, a non-partisan all-candidates meet and greet will allow residents a chance to discuss the performance and speak with candidates with “curiosity and dialogue rather than adversarial debate”.
This show features an interview with Heather Majaury, the artistic director of Outta Work Actors, and collaborator with the Social Development Centre of Waterloo Region. For more about the event, the play, and the Outta Work Actors, visit https://outtaworkactors.com.
