As usual, unelected candidates for office do not qualify for Wikipedia articles just for being candidates, per
WP:NPOL. And even if he wins election in October he still wouldn't qualify for inclusion here, because St. Catharines (pop. ~130K) is not in the narrow range of internationally famous metropolitan megacities for which we actually extend notability to the city councillors. Plus for bonus points, the article is entirely
unsourced — and as I've said all too frequently of late, I have a significant tendency to suspect
conflict of interest editing by the campaign manager when a brochure about an unelected candidate shows up as its creator's first-ever contribution to Wikipedia. Delete with fire.

Delete. A clear-cut case. --

Delete Per the excellent argument by
Bearcat. The one source is primary, so there is not sufficient indication of notability.
