I don’t have to tell you that life in Ottawa and across Ontario is more expensive. Grocery prices are up 30% in five years. Gas and transit costs are skyrocketing. Homes are out of reach. The cost of everything is through the roof.
On Monday I’ll be back at Queen’s Park, with the legislature finally returning to work after a longer than usual winter recess. On Thursday March 26th, MPPs will be getting their first look at the government’s 2026-2027 budget, a budget we suspect will include cuts to the services our neighbours rely on the most.
One year ago today, February 27th 2025, you put your trust in me to be your champion at Queen’s Park. It remains an incredible honour to get to represent this wonderful community every day as its Member of Provincial Parliament.

I hope you were able to enjoy a joyous winter holiday season with your loved ones, and are staying warm and safe in this frigid January weather! |

Early last week we saw a record-breaking heat wave sweep across Ontario, with 3 days of temperatures in the mid 30s and a humidex that, at its peak, reached over 45°C. This level of intense heat is not just uncomfortable, it’s dangerous.
