Thank You!
I may not have won on election night, but the 280 day campaign did serve to engage and empower residents who share a belief for a better Scarborough.
I was proud to stand up for my supporters, for our community and for our future.
It’s important those who got involved in this campaign stay involved in fighting for the vision of Scarborough they support.
The future is bright and if residents keep the pressure on they can force results from their returning Councillor.
I’ll be taking some time to take stock of my next steps, but two things are certain – my commitment to leading Wind Concerns Ontario is unaffected by the results of this election and I will continue to answer the call of folks seeking my help.
Thank you again to those 4440 voters who felt I represent the kind of leadership they’d like to see and to everyone who donated or volunteered to make this all possible.
I will never forget the heartwarming kindness and generosity I’ve been blessed with these last months as your candidate.

If you live in Ward 43 and want to see change at City Hall it is critical you vote. Over the course of the campaign I’ve demonstrated my commitment to our community and making sure Scarborough has a voice. Today I ask you to stand up, to stand with me at the ballot box to make your voice heard.
Polls are open from 10-8pm. If you have a voter card take it and a piece of ID with you. A drivers licence works as well. If you don’t have a drivers licence a bill or bank statement and passport, citizenship card or something else with your picture will do.
It’s been an honour to be your candidate and with your support I look forward to being your next City Councillor.
If you need a ride to the polls, have any questions or have trouble voting please call 647 724 0600.

This morning at 10am I joined with family, friends and neighbours and cast my ballot for Mayor, City Councillor and School Trustee in Ward 43. I was pleased to go to the polls with my grandparents and some of my key campaign supporters to exercise our democratic responsibilities. If you believe our ward needs a strong, local voice at City Hall, it’s critical you vote as well.
