THUNDER BAY – Tracey MacKinnon says early on in her political journey, she took some advice from former two-time mayor Ken Boshcoff.
“He told me, ‘People know your name, but not what you do, or they know what you do, but not your name. Give it time and they’ll put two and two together. So here I am four years later and four elections later, and I thought I’d give it another run.” Not surprisingly, poverty, mental health and addictions and homelessness top her list of issues that need serious thought by the incoming city council.
McKinnon, who on Oct. 17 will host the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty at city hall from 12 p.m. to 1:30, has invited all council candidates to join in and listen to community members telling stories about their lived experience on the streets of Thunder Bay.“I think that should be at the forefront. People who are homeless and living in poverty are not usually the ones who vote. We need to get them to vote.
