I'm not "defining" anything. I'm only repeating how each of the candidates have labelled themselves. Tory, Stintz, and Soknacki are all self-described conservatives (even saying they will continue Rob Ford's agenda but without his personal failings) whereas Chow is obviously a far-left socialist.

So voters who support the low taxes, anti- "gravy train" agenda of Ford have four different choices (including Ford himself) whereas voters on the opposite end of the spectrum really only have Chow.
