As someone who lives in and loves Thorncliffe Park, I know the struggles we face every day. From crumbling housing conditions to the lack of recreational facilities and food insecurity in our schools, our community is in dire need of equitable services and opportunities. For too long, our voices have been ignored while wealthier neighborhoods thrive.
I am running for City Councillor because I believe it’s time for real change. Thorncliffe Park deserves better—and I will fight to ensure we get it. I will push for improved housing, more accessible community spaces, job opportunities, and food programs in our schools. Most importantly, I will make sure our community is included in every decision that affects our lives.
No one understands our struggles like someone who has lived them. Together, we can make our voices heard.
