The People's Choice (previously Christchurch 2021) is a centre-left political ticket that contests elections for the Christchurch City Council, and the Canterbury Regional Council in Christchurch, New Zealand.
The ticket has an association with the New Zealand Labour Party, and although it has never run a mayoral candidate under its modern title, it tends to support centre-left mayors both on council and during election campaigns. The People's Choice city council caucus is currently headed by the ticket's leader, Deputy Mayor Andrew Turner.

In its policy manifesto, the ticket also voices support for a rental warrant of fitness and "supporting M?ori economic development through partnership with Ng?i Tahu and other iwi".
