The 2000 ward map

The city council elections were eventful. Redistricting increased the number of wards from 28 to 44, but each ward only elected a single councillor, reducing the number of councillors from 56 to 44. This created several battles between incumbents such as Gloria Lindsay Luby against , David Miller versus Bill Saundercook, and against Anne Johnston. For the most part, incumbents were re-elected: the major exception was Etobicoke where three incumbents -- , , and Bruce Sinclair —were defeated. Over all, the elections shifted the council somewhat to the left.
