鎮議員 · Ward 1

For more than 20 years, I have worked in aviation, where no two days, and no two people, are exactly alike.

For more than 25 years I've worked as a software engineer and consultant

He later founded and led a Canadian health-management company and remained involved in business, investment and property matters.

As a journalist, I spent years covering municipal politics, speaking with residents, community leaders and elected officials

When I joined the Town in the 1990s as a young graduate, the Mayor asked me a question that has stuck with me throughout my career.

My family and I have called Ward 1 home since 2007, first in Lakeshore Woods and now in Bronte.

I grew up in Bronte, and I've always believed in the power of community.

I've served on the Board of a local Residents Association, volunteered with seniors' programs and community food charities, coached youth soccer, and helped run family events in our neighbourhoods.

Review growth projections in order to protect our community's identity. They don't represent today's market reality.

Advocate for more innovative affordable housing options while preserving our existing rental options.

I want the Town to develop a coordinated district-wide construction mitigation plan.

Growth is part of Oakville's future — but it must be planned properly and respect the neighbourhoods we already call home.

GROWTH WILL CHANGE OAKVILLE. VOTERS SHOULD BE PART OF THAT DISCUSSION.

Plan growth. Protect what makes Ward 1 special.

Will Bronte be a place our kids can afford?

DON'T JUST RAISE TAXES. RAISE PRODUCTIVITY.

Relieve traffic by optimising signals and adding capacity where needed while improving transit and active transportation. Reduce the impact of construction through enforceable management.

Congestion and traffic safety are daily frustrations. Our roads must work for drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, seniors, and families.

Can roads, transit and infrastructure keep pace?

Reduce break-ins and car theft, calm traffic on our streets, and guide regulation of e-scooters.

I will implement an efficient neighbourhood watch program and coordinate with our police service to increase police presence, specifically at night.

We're only going to see increased density in the years to come, and as more people move in and more people visit, crime will rise.

Advance the Bronte Waterfront Strategy and Streetscape Plan, prioritising a skating loop, enhanced green spaces and trail connections.

Ward 1 is unique — the waterfront, Bronte Village, parks, trails and historic character that make it special must be protected.

Protect Bronte's waterfront while keeping it vibrant and accessible.

The new Bronte Streetscape Plan is gorgeous but it stops a block short.

Infrastructure first — roads, parks, schools, services

What happens to parks, schools and community services?

Out in churches, mosques and temples, every week.

Let's also bring a Library to Bronte. We are the only ward without one!

Having a Town Councillor share a school bus stop was the spark that inspired me to run.

My boys are grown — which means if I'm elected, being your councillor will be my full-time job.

TIME TO HEAR FROM THE VOTERS. TIME TO ASK THE TOUGH QUESTIONS. TIME FOR ACCOUNTABILITY.

Reinstate Citizen Advisory Committees to transparently and constructively voice ideas easily
