Toronto is my hometown. I love this diverse and vibrant city and I’m inspired daily by the people who fill it with creativity, energy and passion.

It’s been my life’s mission to make this city as great as it can be. Through my work with environmental groups, the Toronto District School Board and City Council, I have fought hard to create safe spaces for youth, ensure renters have protections, support seniors who want to age in place and protect Toronto’s green spaces.
I am a husband to my wife, Melissa, and father to my daughter, Molly. I’m a community advocate, city builder and proud city councillor. And I believe in the promise Toronto holds for so many – but for too long, it has been held back from its true potential.
We have all seen the decline. Our roads are crumbling and garbage bins are overflowing. Rents are skyrocketing and housing prices are through the roof, forcing young people and newcomers out of Toronto. People don’t feel safe on the TTC, and fares are going up while service is being cut.
The past decade of leadership starved the services that made Toronto the incredible city we all know it can be. The deterioration of our city was a choice. And now, we can choose a better future.
I have a real plan to fix our city. One that ensures buses and streetcars run on time. That our young people have the programs they need. That Toronto is safe, affordable and filled with energy and opportunity for everyone. It’s a plan that the City can afford and that is actually doable.
You work hard and you deserve a city that works. Together we can make it happen.
Better is possible.
