Kitchener cannot solve today's challenges alone. We need a Mayor & Council , that works constructively with Ottawa and Queen's Park to bring investment, infrastructure and opportunities to our community.

I will advocate strongly for Kitchener's interests while building partnerships across all levels of government. We should compete for investment, cooperate on solutions and hold every level of government accountable for delivering results.

Kitchener deserves a seat at the table. Kitchener's biggest challenges, housing, infrastructure, transit, public safety, immigration, climate resilience and economic development cannot be solved by City Hall alone.
