Meet Terri

Terri Hawkes is an arts leader, community advocate, and proud resident of University–Rosedale.
For years, she has worked to bring people together — serving on the Annex Residents’ Association, co-founding the Dalton Road Residents’ Group, and advocating for thoughtful development, green space protection, and stronger neighbourhood voices.
As a mother of two young adults, Terri understands the pressures facing Toronto families today — affordability, housing, safety, community connection, and protecting what makes our neighbourhoods livable.
Her career as a screenwriter, actor, and director taught her the importance of listening deeply and telling stories that matter. Now, she wants to bring those same skills to City Hall.
Terri believes residents deserve:
-
transparency
-
accountability
-
safer communities
-
respectful consultation
-
and a stronger voice in shaping Toronto’s future.
