District 4 · November 5

A council that listens.

Affordable housing. Safer streets. Schools that work. A campaign funded by neighbours — not a single lobbyist dollar.

02The platformFull policy notes on request

Six planks. In writing.

Every promise here comes with a first-hundred-days action attached.

01

Housing

A published district housing plan in the first hundred days, with the numbers, the sites and the timeline set out where residents can hold us to them.

02

Safe streets

A street-by-street safety review starting with the school routes, and the findings published in full rather than summarised.

03

Schools

Quarterly meetings with every principal in the district, and a plain-language budget report so families can see where the money lands.

04

Environment

An audit of the district's worst heat and flood blocks in year one, with remediation costed publicly before it is voted on.

05

Small business

Permit turnaround measured and published monthly, and a standing office hour for owners who cannot make an evening meeting.

06

Accountability

Quarterly public office hours, an open meetings register, and expense logs posted from day one of the term.

Portrait of the candidate

I've lived in this district for 22 years.

Public-school teacher for fourteen years before this run. Community board member for the last six. I coach the rec-league soccer team on Saturdays. I'm running because the council we have isn't working for the neighbours I know — and because someone at that table should have graded homework this decade.

How we win

No super PAC is coming. It works the old way: neighbours talking to neighbours.

  1. Knock doors

    Canvasses launch every Saturday at 10am from the field office. First-timers are paired with a captain — no experience needed.

  2. Host your block

    A living-room meeting with ten neighbours moves more votes than a thousand ads. We bring the candidate; you bring the coffee.

  3. Vote — and bring two

    Early voting opens October 26. Make a plan, then make two more with the people next door.

Neighbours say

Why the district is turning out.

She showed up to our tenants' meeting two years before she was running for anything. That's the difference — the listening started long before the campaign did.

November 5. Make it count.

Quarterly town halls once elected — but first, we have doors to knock.
