MY FAMILY

It's amazing how much difference having the right person in your life can make. I was exceptionally fortunate to have met Terresa five years ago. This February we ran off and eloped, much to the chagrin of our families. We really are the "Brady Bunch" having seven children between us! Our family also includes Tank, our SPCA rescue dog and Great White's mascot.

SMALL BUSINESS OWNER

I started Great White Toys - Comics - Games 28 years ago. I am fortunate to have great staff who have been instrumental in helping me grow my business. In the past two years alone, we have expanded from 6 to 16 staff.

BETTER ROADS

When I was first elected in 2008, I championed better roads. It took five years but council finally approved proper funding, increasing the annual budget from $3 million to $7 million. It ensured every area in our city would see roads improved. Unfortunately, in 2017 just as city was about to make progress on our residential and rural roads, this council slashed the roads budget by $2 million. I will work tirelessly to restore that funding.

SIDEWALKS

For the safety and enjoyment of everyone, we need sidewalks repaired and new ones built.

The current council, like their predecessors, dumped extra onetime funds into sidewalks. Unfortunately, this council cut the annual sidewalk budget by five per cent to $1 million, just half of what should be spent annually. I will speak up and find solutions for properly funding our sidewalks.

TRANSIT

Our transit system needs to match the lifestyle of its user. Hours of operation and routes should be expanded in the evening and on weekends. This would allow people to attend events at CN Centre, enjoy downtown entertainment, visit friends, and be able to get home safely - especially at night.
