Park Extension

I think what's important is that we do this campaign on both side of the track.

I often say is that we have Viller- Villeray and Parc-Extension, which are two different oppo- opposite neighborhood.

And unfortunately, what we see often is that Vil- Parc-Extension don't always have a vo- a voice in this because unfortunately because of, you know, cultural barrier, language barriers sometimes that we feel that they're not being listened to during these campaigns.

And what I, what I promise myself is to make sure that both, both side of the train track would be listened because they all, we all have the same needs.

It's just that the way that we're saying it and the way that we need it and the way that express ourself is different, and I wanna make sure that I do that.

When I was Commissioner of Indigenous Relations, that was my job to make sure that what I hear on the ground is being translated into public laws and to public programs, and this is what I meant to do, uh, by being a candidate here.

Um, unfortunately, like I said, language barrier, culture, cultural barriers, um, are an issue sometimes especially during, uh, during political campaigns, and that's why I wanna make sure that everybody has a words in, in this.

And that's why I wanted to have an campaign office in Parc-Extension because they're telling me, "We haven't had a lot of focus on us." And you can see for the past eight years unfortunately is that the, the social net in both Parc-Extension and Villeray has disintegrated.
