Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the people of Ottawa Centre. It is a true honour to serve my community, and a responsibility I carry with deep humility and commitment.
Throughout the campaign, I heard a clear call for leadership that listens and delivers. That is what I am here to do. I will keep working hard to expand access to dental care, build more affordable housing on public lands and advance a seniors' health and housing hub at Confederation Heights.
Revitalizing our downtown is also a top priority, from transforming Dow's Lake and the Arboretum into year-round community destinations to improving bike paths and supporting local businesses.
I am excited to keep pushing to bring the Ottawa Senators to LeBreton Flats, part of a bold, community-led vision that includes affordable housing, indigenous culture and French-language education.
I will always stand up for Ottawa Centre and for a stronger, more inclusive Canada.
