Getting to Work for Kitchener Centre This summer, I met with leaders from all levels of government to tackle the big questions: How do we grow our local economy? How do we keep our streets safe? How do we make life more affordable? These weren’t just check-ins, they were strategic conversations about how we align our efforts to deliver real results for Kitchener Centre. From housing and transit to small business support and community safety, we’re focused on practical solutions that make a difference. The work ahead is serious, and I’m ready to get to it. Let’s build a future that’s secure, affordable, and full of opportunity, together. Thank you to all, that took the time to meet.
