Ran into 2 former constituents this morning while walking in Benalmadena Spain. I had two lovely conversations. If we could find a way to extend the Ward 9 boundaries to this beautiful part of the world I might consider coming out of retirement .

Full day today . Spent the morning speaking to a City of Ottawa management team about what to expect during this election year from incumbents, challengers and potentially newbie elected folks.
Spent the afternoon sorting through donations at Thrive and just had to take this home with me.

Well done Mr. Mayor and all the folks that came out to support. And @jamiefinemusic.bsky.social . I remember seeing her singing and hosting at Merivale HS talent nights. You knew she was going to make it as a singer.
