With the Election Day just a few days away, I will make this my last post. Below, please find an overview of my platform and campaign.
I encourage you to stack up everything I am proposing against the other candidates. While I know for a fact they all have worked very hard during their campaigns, no other candidate has provided as much detail as I have provided on how to achieve the goals proposed. Our beloved city is not healthy. Now is not a moment in Windsor’s history for talk, we need action.
On Monday, October …

All council candidates recently received a very short questionnaire from a concerned taxpayer regarding the Ojibway Park area. As with all other questionnaires I have responded to, in my attempt to be open and transparent, here are my responses:
1) Do you support the Big Box development directly adjacent to Ojibway Prairie?
The city of Windsor has conducted a study named the Commercial Land Use Policy. The study concluded Windsor is oversaturated with commercial spaces and no new commercial development is needed without first using up existing empty spaces. Also, Windsor-Essex has less …

Last week, A-News invited all Ward 4 candidates to ride the bus with their constituents and answer their questions. Here is the piece put together by A’s Cristina Howorun:

I recently completed a survey that was sent out by Windsorite.ca to all municipal candidates.

Some people will tell you that a partial solution has already been made in removing big trucks off of Wyandotte St. E. A press release (above) was sent out stating that Chrysler was agreeing not to send their trucks down Wyandotte St. E. However, there was a key inclusion in the press release. It said “Except for delivery trucks”. So I personally emailed Fred Pernal of Chrysler Group Transport who was listed on the press release. In his response he went on to say, and I quote, …

With early voting beginning this Saturday at Devonshire Mall and less than three weeks to the election on October 25, I thought I would take the time to summarize my campaign to date.
So far, I have been the only candidate in Ward 4 who has given detailed plans on what he is proposing. To me, that is a bit concerning. Anyone can say words that others want to hear, but how do they plan on solving those issues?
To show everyone how I plan on doing so, here is what I …

I am humble enough to know that sometimes other people have better ideas than me. It is my personal belief that it takes a true leader to recognize this, embrace those superior solutions whether they thought of them or not and help push them forward towards success.
As the election nears and my door-to-door campaigning continues to gain momentum, I have been asking residents what they would like to see done to help improve the liveability of their city. One of the most common responses I receive is improving the Riverfront …

I recently spoke with a resident of Wyandotte St. E. in Old Walkerville. She indicated that she has to check at least once a week how far items on her shelves have moved because of the tremors from big rigs speeding by.
While the truck traffic is visible during the day it increases, and with higher speeds, in the late hours of the evening or very early hours of the morning. It is only a matter of time until it becomes more than just a nuisance to home owners and that someone’s life is put …
