Advancing priority transit projects, including the Hazel McCallion Line LRT Downtown Loop and all-day, two-way GO service on the Milton corridor.
Pushing more infrastructure funding to combat flooding and manage stormwater in areas of the city hardest hit by recent floods.
Working with the province to respond to American tariffs and protect local jobs and the economy.
Adding more justices of the peace for the City’s Provincial Offences Act courts to ensure justice is done in a timely manner.
