1909 Toronto municipal election

Municipal elections were held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on January 1, 1909. Joseph Oliver was easily re-elected to his second term as Mayor of Toronto. One of the central issues of the campaign was whether the city should build a bridge over the Don River connecting Bloor Street to Danforth Avenue. A referendum was held as part of the vote, and the bridge was approved. Once it was built, it was named the Prince Edward Viaduct.
Toronto mayor.
Oliver had been elected in the 1908 election, and was easily reelected while facing no serious opposition. 
Board of Control.
At the same as the election, a referendum was held on reducing the number of licensed bars in the city by 40. The proposal passed, but in a surprise upset Controller Frank S. Spence, who was the strongest supporter for the measure, was defeated. His place on the Toronto Board of Control was taken by former Alderman George Reginald Geary who had been defeated by Oliver for Mayor the year previously. Alderman James Hales also tried to gain a seat on the board.
City council.
Three aldermen were elected to Toronto City Council per ward.
Creation of Ward 7.
The City of West Toronto was annexed on May 1, 1909 and became Ward 7. Due to its smaller size it had only two aldermen. A by-election was held on May 29, 1909.
