NASSCO | Oct 14, 2026
While much of our underground infrastructure goes unseen, it plays a vital role in the health, safety, and quality of life of our communities. Strong infrastructure is the foundation of strong and resilient cities.
My office hosted a meeting with the team at NASSCO to share the innovation of trenchless technology and how it can provide a cost-effective, less disruptive alternative to digging up roads and sidewalks while extending the life of water and sewer infrastructure.
For a tariff-free auto pact | Oct 14, 2026
Over the past seven years, I’ve been proud to serve as Chair and Co-Chair of the Conservative Auto Caucus with former MP Colin Carrie and MP Rhonda Kirkland. It’s been a wild ride, pun intended, and a privilege to advocate for Canada’s auto sector alongside so many dedicated colleagues.
I am pleased to pass the wheel to my fellow Windsor colleague, MP Harb Gill, as Co-Chair, and MP Kathy Borelli as Vice-Chair. Congratulations to both of you. With Rhonda Kirkland continuing on as Co-Chair, the caucus is in great hands!
For a tariff-free auto pact | Oct 14, 2026
Canada’s auto sector is critical to workers and families across Windsor-Essex.
Conservatives are proposing a tariff-free auto pact focused on protecting jobs, strengthening North American supply chains, increasing Canadian production, and removing the GST from Canadian-made vehicles.
Our goal is simple: keep auto jobs, investment, and production here in Canada.
Are you concerned about the direction of Canada’s job market? | Oct 12, 2026
Canada lost 68,000 jobs in September, following another 42,000 in August. That’s approximately 110,000 fewer Canadians working in just two months, according to Statistics Canada. Here in Windsor-Essex, we know how important good-paying jobs are to our families and communities. These numbers are concerning, especially for those already struggling to find work. We need to protect Canadian jobs, support our local industries and create more opportunities for people to work.
Happy Thanksgiving from my family to yours | Oct 10, 2026
Wishing everyone across Essex a very Happy Thanksgiving. This weekend is a time to be grateful for family, friends, neighbours, and the strong communities we are fortunate to call home. Whether you are gathering around the table, travelling to see loved ones, or simply enjoying some well-earned time together, I hope your weekend is filled with gratitude, peace, and good company.
Are you finding it harder to make ends meet this year? | Oct 9, 2026
The holidays are approaching, and many Canadian families are feeling the financial pressure. A new PwC report predicts Canadians will spend 11% less this holiday season, while MNP reports that 44% of Canadians are just $200 away from being unable to meet their financial obligations each month. With groceries, fuel and everyday expenses putting pressure on household budgets, families are having to make difficult choices.
Mental Illness Awareness | Oct 3, 2026
October 4–10 marks Mental Illness Awareness Week, a time to raise awareness and reduce stigma surrounding mental illness.
We recognize Canadians living with mental illness and thank the families, caregivers, and mental health professionals who support them in our communities.
Do you think Canada’s immigration system is broken? | Oct 3, 2026
Canada’s immigration system has been pushed past its limits, straining essential services like healthcare, housing, and schools through out-of-control policies. To restore stability, we must reduce numbers and curb program abuse so our infrastructure can catch up and put Canada first.
