Who is the Torontonian of the year?

Time Magazine has named Angela Merkel its Person of the Year, which got us thinking, who is Toronto's person of the year?

We want you to nominate the person who you think merits the mantle. And in a metropolitan area of millions, it doesn't mean it's just one person.

Tell us about the person in your life or neighbourhood who's making the city better for everyone. Maybe it's a volunteer who's making a difference, or maybe it's just a really, really good friend who's done something extraordinary this year.

Tell us the story about why they've made such a difference and deserve the recognition.

Call us at the Vox Box at 416-205-5807 or message us on Twitter or Facebook and we'll share it with the city.

The nominees so far:

Randell Adjei

Randell Adjei went from being arrested at 12 years old to being named his high school's valedictorian in the span of five years. Now he is helping others who have artistic ambition but lack the necessary means to achieve their goals with R.I.S.E. Poetry, an organization for emerging talent.

Tessa Hill and Lia Valente

Tessa Hill and Lia Valente were 13 at the time they started their We Give Consent campaign, which went on to make an impact in how schools in this province deal with consent.

Orlando da Silva

The former head of the Ontario Bar Association used his position to speak out about mental illness he was battling behind the scenes.

Choir! Choir! Choir!

Anyone can join this choir group and sing popular songs in a pub. But it's more about connecting with others in the community.

Barb Tiano

For four decades, Barb Tiano has worked at the information desk at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre. And for 2015, she is Metro Morning's Torontonian of the Year!
