Original Toronto Star caption: Multilingual signs of election times. Not only do voters have to keep track of who is running to represent them in Ottawa; at city hall; on Metro council; the public school board or the separate school board; but; as this house on Gerrard St. E. shows; they have to do it in several languages. Candidates knocking on doors are finding voters confused. The civic vote is Nov. 14.
