It was an absolute pleasure to host Mayor Berry Vrbanovic in my Ottawa office.
We had a meaningful conversation about the incredible work he’s leading in Kitchener and how I can support those efforts at the federal level, such as affordable housing and bail reform.
When municipal and federal leaders work together, we create opportunities to improve the lives of people in Kitchener Centre.
Thank you, Berry Vrbanovic , for taking the time to stop by and engage in such an important discussion. I look forward to continuing this partnership to build a stronger, more connected community.

It's hard to scale here in Canada. Also, there was an article that came out today from CTV that said, “Warren Lovely, managing director with National Bank Financial, told BNN Bloomberg...the private sector has already lost confidence in the federal government, and the country is dependent on the U.S.” Current policy, in the past 10 years, has not been in the form to create innovation and technology in Canada, and we've lost investor confidence in this country. This has been over the past 10 years. To me, these are policy and bureaucracy problems. You even said that it's not something to throw money at. It's how we create investment.
