  • Friends in Ottawa Centre, Winter 2020 Newsletter Sixteen Months After Being Elected As the MPP for Ottawa Centre, I Look Back on the Journey with Pride
    Friends in Ottawa Centre, Winter 2020 Newsletter Sixteen months after being elected as the MPP for Ottawa Centre, I look back on the journey with pride. I’m truly amazed at what we’ve accomplished together. In our community We held eleven town halls and roundtables in 2019 to listen and learn from you. Ottawa is rich with expertise, so we took your ideas to Queen’s Park. We worked hard for justice, even when that meant challenging powerful interests. We demanded urgent action on climate change, and supported advocates for autism, dyslexia, eating disorders, and so many others fighting for an accessible Ontario. We supported the Abdi family who tragically lost their son Abdirahman over three years ago. We supported action on reconciliation as Treaty Peoples, and opposed the abuse of human rights at home and abroad. We filled sandbags for communities in Ottawa impacted by floods. We supported education workers, health care workers, and harm reduction workers suffering under Joel and panelists at our town hall provincial cuts. We met experts who urged us to address our affordable housing and on transit homelessness crisis. We supported seniors facing social isolation, and their caregivers impacted by trespass orders in retirement homes. We listened to transit riders and transit workers about how to improve ParaTranpso, our bus system, and our much-maligned LRT. In 2020 and beyond, our MPP Office will be there for you. Battles are raging over the future of our public services, about access to supports for people with disabilities, about the well-being of children and seniors, and about the future of the planet on which we all depend.
