Residents have shared their concerns with me about public safety. Young professionals want to feel safe walking to work. Parents want to feel confident sending their kids on the bus to go visit a friend. Residents want to feel comfortable going for walks in their neighborhoods after dark.
Our ward is made up of progressive and compassionate people, and we want to make sure that these problems are tackled appropriately.
As your City Councillor, I will support a balanced four pillar model that includes:
prevention strategies,
treatment availability,
harm reduction,
enforcement.
Coordination between all levels of government is key to the success of this strategy.
