I’m excited to officially launch my website! The last couple of months have certainly been a whirlwind of activity.
People have rightfully been sharing their concerns for the safety of unhoused individuals during periods of extreme cold, and I share these concerns. The extreme cold is life-threatening and as we continue to work towards more permanent housing solutions, we must continue to act in the immediate to ensure the safety and well-being of all Edmontonians.
Thank you Edmonton Meals on Wheels for the visit! Today I went on a delivery route in Ward Anirniq with @yegmealsonwheels board member @therealrobchristie
Civic opportunities! The 2021/2022 recruitment period is now open and looking to fill 50 vacant positions.
I’m so proud of the budget that Council has passed. This budget reflects Council’s commitment to find balance by keeping tax increases as low as possible while ensuring we are providing the care and services that Edmontonians expect as we move forward together.
As of today - WARD ANIRNIQ IS HOME TO CANADA’S 1ST FULLY LICENSED 7-ELEVEN RESTAURANT! - Pembina neighbourhood location 14110 127 Street NW.
Today is National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. Our flags fly at half mast in honouring the lives lost and commit to action. We must call out misogyny in all its forms.
It’s icy out there! Crews are working all over the city to deal with the icy conditions - please be careful out there and be patient as they work their way through the City.
This week was another week of firsts - first budget public hearing, first budget deliberations, first ETS Advisory Board, and first Audit Committee. Every Friday my head swirls with all the new information I am taking in.
This weekend I’m looking forward to spending time with my family and continuing to read, read, read, in preparation for Council next week.
I’m getting asked by so many folks if being on Council is what I thought. It absolutely is - long hours in service of residents, loads of reading and meeting prep, and then lots of sitting listening, learning, and deciding!
