Part of achieving outcomes for the residents of District 13 is keeping the issues that are most important to our communities at the top of the public realm. The past year, I have worked diligently to keep the community safety conversation in the media as a way of driving action at Halifax Regional Council.
Should I be elected in October, I will continue to be a champion and a strong voice for the issues that are important for District 13 residents.
