National Newswatch: Canada's most comprehensive site for political news and views. Make it a daily habit.
Ottawa has been through more than two years of upheaval and disruption. And we face significant challenges in the months ahead, including economic uncertainty and a possible recession, rising inflation, concerns about the future of downtown and the ByWard Market, homelessness, a housing shortage, and more.
Once the election is over, we need to get everyone in Ottawa working together toward a shared purpose. If I’m graced with the trust of voters on Monday, I’ll get to work immediately on building a safer, more affordable, more reliable city.
I will bring together the best and brightest minds in our city, the leaders from labour, not-for-profit, and community organizations, to create immediate action around our highest priorities. I will be a compassionate champion for the most vulnerable, and a passionate advocate for small business and our local economy. I will serve you no matter where you live, whether that’s in the rural, suburban, or urban areas of the city, whether you speak English, French, or another language.
