Key facts

  • Matt Cardwell is the Councillor for West Ward on Whitby Town Council, representing West Ward.
  • Municipal councils handle local matters: property tax, zoning and building permits, garbage/recycling/water, snow removal, local bylaws (noise, parking, pets), and parks and recreation. For health care, tenant disputes, or ODSP/OSAP, write to your provincial representative instead; for immigration, federal taxes, or passports, write to your MP.
  • Identify yourself as a resident: full name, home address, and which ward or the general city if the seat is city-wide, so staff can confirm you're within Whitby. Constituent mail is prioritized.
  • Letters to municipal councillors need regular postage — there's no postage-free rule at the municipal level (unlike mail to federal MPs).
  • PostPal prints your letter and deposits it with Canada Post the next business day for $6 — no printer, envelope, or stamps needed.

How to send your letter

  1. 1

    Check it’s a municipal matter

    Whitby council can act on local files: property tax, zoning and permits, garbage/recycling/water service, snow removal, local bylaws, and parks. If your issue is health care, a tenancy dispute, or ODSP/OSAP, that's provincial — write to your MPP/MLA instead; immigration, EI, or passports go to your federal MP.

  2. 2

    Write to Cardwell at Whitby Town Council

    Cardwell represents West Ward and can raise a ward-specific issue directly with staff or at a council meeting. Mail goes to Whitby Town Council's office at 575 Rossland Road East, Whitby, ON L1N 2M8.

  3. 3

    Say who you are and where you live

    Open with your full name, address, and which ward you're in (if the seat is ward-based) so Cardwell's office can confirm you're a resident. One page, one issue, and a specific ask — support or oppose an item on an upcoming agenda, or raise a problem with a department.

Common questions

What is Matt Cardwell's mailing address?

Matt Cardwell, Councillor, 575 Rossland Road East, Whitby ON L1N 2M8.

Should I write to my councillor, my MPP, or my MP?

Depends on the issue. City council is municipal: property tax, zoning, garbage/water, snow removal, local bylaws, parks. Your MPP/MLA is provincial: health care, education, housing and tenant disputes, ODSP/OSAP. Your MP is federal: immigration, taxes, EI, passports. Name the program — the wrong office will redirect you, but starting in the right place is faster.

Do I need a stamp to write to Cardwell?

Yes — mail to municipal councillors takes regular postage; there's no postage-free rule at the municipal level. If you'd rather skip the stamp and printer entirely, PostPal prints and mails your letter for $6 flat.

Do I have to live in West Ward to write to Cardwell?

No, but ward-specific casework is normally only taken up for residents of West Ward. If you live elsewhere in Whitby, your own ward councillor is the better first contact — or write to Cardwell specifically about a citywide issue.

Will Matt Cardwell actually read my letter?

Constituent mail is logged by council office staff, and issues tied to an upcoming agenda item get flagged directly. Include your return address — PostPal prints yours automatically — so a reply has somewhere to go.
