“I would prioritize removing delays and costs that prevent building housing while protecting local services and green spaces. We need purpose-built rentals, family-sized homes, multi-unit buildings and options allowing seniors to remain in their community. The City must maintain affordable housing and make the application process more transparent and responsive. For residents in need, I support safe supportive housing, mental-health care, and addiction treatment offering a path to stability rather than further addiction.”

“I would prioritize a Core Service Review of the City’s budget to reduce waste and limit the pressure for further property-tax increases. Higher property taxes, which Shelley Carroll has increased a compounded 28%, affect everyone because they are paid directly by homeowners and passed along to renters and small businesses through rising costs. We can immediately hold tax increases and eliminate costly programs that are not producing measurable improvements for taxpayers in Don Valley North and Toronto.”

“I would prioritize a visible, coordinated safety presence on the TTC and in parks, streets, and public spaces. That means staffing police and TTC special constables, improving lighting and maintenance, and responding quickly to threats, open drug use, weapons, and disorder. Residents should not have to change their routines because they feel unsafe. People struggling with addiction or mental illness should receive treatment and care, while public-safety laws are consistently enforced. Compassion and safety must work together.”

“I would coordinate road and transit work so fewer major routes are disrupted at once. Toronto must repair roads, improve TTC safety and reliability, enforce traffic and street-racing laws, and keep sidewalks accessible. I oppose bike lanes on major Don Valley North roads such as Bayview, Leslie, Don Mills and Finch where they worsen congestion or delay emergency vehicles. Cycling routes should be safe and practical without creating bottlenecks, respecting drivers, transit riders, cyclists, pedestrians, seniors and people with disabilities.”

“My first priority would be a Core Service Review of spending and performance. I would end wasteful or ineffective programs and redirect savings to law enforcement, affordable housing, addiction treatment, TTC and infrastructure. My goal is competent, accountable delivery of services residents need. As an entrepreneur & board member, I have built organizations, managed priorities and measured results. Especially in this time of economic uncertainty, Toronto needs to get its finances under control. I have the political will to do the job.”
