Check out my Campaign for Re-election
I’m running to put residents first and get action on the issues you care about. Check out my campaign site – votemarianne.ca where you can read more about why I’m running and my commitments to you.
I’ve developed a comprehensive platform addressing:
- greater accountability by council members on fundraising and recorded votes;
- development and intensification that protects neighbourhood character, greenspace and our financial bottom line;
- our momentum on a vibrant downtown and focus on more jobs;
- the need to find savings, with spending on infrastructure and priorities that matter to you;
- and more on heritage, affordable housing, transit, waterfront access, and community participation.
If you’d like to get a lawn sign for September, send me a message, or volunteer, please sign up here.
I’m out knocking on doors, and I’m meeting great people and having wonderful conversations. I’m inspired by your passion for this city and our neighbourhoods and the insight you bring to make our city even better. I look forward to talking with you.

I vote according to the issues. I vote for the candidate that answers questions on the issues intelligently and sincerely skirting the issue does not get my vote. If they do not know about the issue I expect them to find out then get back to me. If my best friend or a family member were a candidate and did not support the issues I believed were necessary to take care of those most urgently in need I would Not vote for them. I find you to be responsive and accountable on the issues and publically seek transparency on the vote etc. You also send the Ward 2 news which is most informative and what the public desperately need. Up until this very little was ever discussed and certainly not nearly all things came to light. This is the productive and go forward way of doing things. Thanks for that and I for one will continue reading and learning.
