Campaign School: Shelley Carroll

02/26/2012 2:00 pm

Shelley CarrollShelley Carroll, the Toronto city councillor from Ward 33 whose political career has taken her from school trustee to chair of the Budget Committee to deputy mayor, will visit to talk about her experiences in the arena — including the unprecedented attention paid to activities at City Hall in the past year.

New and returning students to Campaign School can get insights on how Councillor Carroll went from a career in banking to over a decade in the public service, what role social media has played in keeping in touch with constituents and her status as a downtown-boosting representative of a non-downtown riding.
