Scott Gilbert

By Side Street team · Sources checked 1 October 2026

Background

Gilbert is listed by the City with no party affiliation. His campaign website describes his work in public-interest investigation and civic advocacy.

Published priorities

His September 29 platform proposes walk-in withdrawal care on Hastings linked to treatment, housing support and paid work. It also calls for reliable public toilets, shared-equity first homes on public land and published street-repair backlogs. He told Side Street on September 30 that the exact facility, City and provincial funding split, and clinical partner have not been settled.

What we’d like to ask

Which facility, funding agreement and qualified clinical partner would make the Hastings proposal possible?
