Our region is set to face big changes over the next four years. Ontario’s new government has already brought rapid changes and funding cuts – including the repeal of the carbon tax, which will have an impact on municipal infrastructure. In the Region, we’re also electing a new Regional Chair, as well as the commissioning of a new rapid transit system. Internationally, our country is facing uncertainty surrounding the potential economic implications of tariffs and a trade war with the U.S.
In the face of these changes, it is important to have experienced, steady hands at the council table. I believe the best approach to navigating changing times is by electing candidates who have strong, experienced leadership.
I have been serving the Waterloo region for over 2 decades, including 4 terms as Waterloo Regional Councillor. I am proud of what I have accomplished throughout these years, but there is still more work to be done.
As your regional councillor I have always been interested in seeking your feedback and advice. If you agree with at least three of these issues, or you disagree I would like to hear from you. if you have any other ideas on local government please send via sean@seanstrickland.com. Your opinion matters!
