While there are definitely some great things coming out of the 2026 City of Ottawa budget, I couldn't give it my vote of support. It was a pleasant surprise that CBC Radio used some of my speech to show a contrast between my position and the Mayor's. Give it a listen. 1/ www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

Today I brought a voice of dissent to the city budget vote. The residents of Somerset Ward are my boss: not the mayor and not other members of council. I know you want a city that works and that leaves no one behind. This budget missed the mark, so I voted against it. I will keep fighting for you.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!
