Issue answers

What's the most important thing you'd act on as a City Councillor, and what experience or strengths would help you make it happen?

elected 8 times to national and local roles and a familiarity with council in 2026 i can be effective for toronto Danforth

Housing

Housing costs weigh on Torontonians whether they rent or own, access to subsidized housing is limited, and a growing number of people have no home at all. What would you prioritize on the next City Council to help people find and keep a secure place to live?

im one of the only councilor candidates in tor dan to show up along with Mayor Chow and former councilor fletcher to NO JETS and try and save Billions which could be used to house the vulnerable

Cost of Living

The cost of daily life keeps climbing — housing, transit fares, city fees, etc. What is one thing you would prioritize on the next City Council to make Toronto more affordable, soon enough to matter to residents?

the city will get one of the most active on affordability issues as ive been to the deputations of the budget committee and active organizing with Torontonians fighting for affordability

Safety in Public Spaces

Some Torontonians don't feel safe in parks, on transit, or on certain streets, even where reported crime is low. What would you prioritize on the next City Council to help people be and feel safe in the city's public spaces?

social housing can help decrease crime as people are not wandering out with desperation in life

Getting Around the City

Getting around the city is a source of frustration for many Torontonians, whether people drive, take transit, cycle, or walk. What would you prioritize on the next City Council to improve how people move around the city, however they travel?

council took a step to cap fares in 2026 and encouraging public transit one of the most efficient form transit is good. Cars and the car makers lobby are one of the most inefficient

Confronting Hateful and Hostile Behaviour

Many Torontonians are concerned about hateful and hostile behaviour, which can disproportionately affect newcomers and members of racialized, marginalized, and equity-deserving communities. What would you prioritize on the next City Council to respond and keep Toronto safe and welcoming for everyone?

a strong relationship between the affordability crisis and our role to help stop the province using BILLIONs on programs that aren't a priority will be a good path for me as councilor to lead
