Matthews, Brian
Matthews, Brian raised $3,752 from 1 contributors across 1 Toronto municipal campaign, 2025.
Raised by campaign
Each bar is one campaign for one office. Totals are contributions filed with the City Clerk, less any the campaign returned.
Results
Official results from the City's poll-by-poll releases. Money raised per vote received divides contributions by votes — it is not what the campaign spent, because the archive holds contributions and not expenses.
| Campaign | Office | Votes | Raised | Per vote | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 Councillor Ward 25 By-Election | Councillor W25 | 397 | $3,751.79 | $9.45 | Defeated397 votes$9.45/vote |
Contributor types
Individual, corporate and union money across every campaign.
Every contribution came from an individual — no corporate or union money.
When corporate and union money was allowed
Corporate and union contributions were still legal in the 2006 Toronto election. They were banned for city council and mayoral campaigns starting in 2010.
But that ban did not cover school board trustee campaigns. They kept accepting corporate and union contributions until a province-wide ban took effect for the 2018 election.
Third party advertisers, which were required to register starting in 2018, can still accept corporate and union contributions.
A small number of corporate contributions to council campaigns exists in the database after the ban. Some may have been for goods and services, or improperly recorded. The data doesn't tell us.
This candidate ran for council or mayor only, so any corporate or union money here should fall in 2006.
Largest contributors
Across every campaign. A contributor is identified by their full name and postal code together. Individuals are shown by postal area only; organizations in full.

When the money came in
Monthly totals for one campaign. Contribution dates exist only from 2018 onward; the 2006–2014 Open Data releases never published them, so earlier campaigns cannot be charted this way.
