What inspired me to seek public office in the first place – "I can do something about that!" – continues to propel me forward as the City and Regional Councillor for Ward 2 since 2010. This isn’t a job; it’s a privilege to represent and serve the residents of Burlington. In my time on council, I’ve had the honour to meet and serve with many residents who also believe you “can do something about that” and volunteer your time to make Burlington better.
The Solidarity Walk to Bring Back Our Girls is a fabulous idea. UNfortunately I am unable to walk this far at this time. If there is anything else that I can do to support this effort I would be happy to do so. Ever since this dreadful event was announced on the news I hoped someone would do something. Perhaps there could be a follow-up event with refreshments etc for sale to raise some money for the cause and perhaps a lot of persons unable to walk this far could attend and show support.
