They stopped by my constituency office to highlight concerns about upcoming funding changes affecting local supports. I heard their front‑line perspective and will be advocating to ensure our government acts to protect these vital services.

From judicial efficiency to affordable housing, to engaging racialized youth, all aspects are important to a comphrensive approach to public safety.

When I speak with constituents, public safety is always top of mind. Yes, it’s about safer streets, tougher sentences, and bail reform, but it’s far more complex than that.

Real safety starts long before a crisis — it begins with prevention, trust, and collaboration.

Today, I hosted my first Public Safety Roundtable, bringing together residents, law enforcement, elected officials, educators, and community advocates for an open and constructive discussion.

Get the Benadryl - Conservatives are allergic to facts!

From Whitby’s soccer fields to the world’s biggest stage, Olivia Smith is rewriting the playbook for what’s possible. Nine goals. Player of the Year. Twenty years old. One unstoppable force.

She’s not just playing the game — she’s elevating it.
