The 2000 Toronto municipal election was the municipal and school board election of 2000 held in Toronto on November 13, 2000.

Elections were held to elect:

the Mayor of Toronto,
councillors for each of Toronto's 44 wards,
trustees for each of the Toronto District School Board's 22 sections (each comprising two city wards),
trustees for each of the Toronto Catholic District School Board's 12 sections (each comprising two to six city wards),
trustees for the three sections of the Conseil scolaire de district du Centre-Sud-Ouest (French-language public school board) located in Toronto, and
trustees for the two sections of the Conseil scolaire de district catholique Centre-Sud (French-language Catholic school board) located in Toronto.

City council

The city council elections were eventful. Redistricting increased the number of wards from 28 to 44, but each ward only elected a single councillor, reducing the number of councillors from 56 to 44. This created several battles between incumbents such as Gloria Lindsay Luby against Mario Giansante, David Miller versus Bill Saundercook, and Milton Berger against Anne Johnston. For the most part, incumbents were re-elected: the major exception was Etobicoke where three incumbents -- Blake Kinahan, Elizabeth Brown, and Bruce Sinclair —were defeated. Over all, the elections shifted the council somewhat to the left.
