And Councillor MMW will do so with much more respect for the people of Burlington and their views/opinions.

I detest what is happening to our city.
I put my trust in you.

@grahamsucha Conservatives never cut anything of benefit to wealthy folks. Always cuts on essential life supports to those least able to withstand them. Please, Mr. Kenney, convince me these are not class based policies.

@TPSChrisBoddy I remember it well. That's me photo boming ver your shoulder. Thanks for the laugh.

Given that at least 2 wards will change hands due to incumbents retiring the dynamic of next council will be different. Less antagonostic hopefully more cooperative. Its up to voters to elect new councillors to make that new dynamic even more positive.

@MariannMeedWard @ZwWagstaffe @kenjaques This assumes those councillors will be re-elected which I expect will not be the case. #BurlON #Burlington #Oct22 #SayNoToBurlonto

We’re lucky to live in a city with so much public waterfront access. I love seeing people enjoying picnics, family time & quiet moments in dozens of little spots from Burloak all the way past the beachfront & LaSalle. Have you explored all these gems? #BestofBurlON #lovemycity

@justaclickbyaj @BurlingtonGazet Its not only who you get rid of. Its who you replace them with. Too many multi candidate contedts make it easier for incumbents to win again. Those who cantvwin need to drop out and support others who can. Real Change will not be achieved by splitting the vote.

[Jim Young @Y1950JimY]

@FilomenaTassiMP Glad to retweet the news. Congratulations and good luck.

@KristinBingham On the day the condensed New Official Plan hit my doorstep I read that our mayor voted to not only ammend the present Plan but to go even higher than the New Plan he voted for. Why bother? Just give the keys to the developers and go home. Or.....Maybe we could...... #turfemout

Great to swing by the Burlington Italian-Canadian BBQ today at LaSalle Park. Thanks for inviting me! Turns out I’m a half decent bocce player (a history of birthday parties at the bowling alley helps!) Fantastic food and homemade treats. Perfect.

@vocemdemocratia The official plan in effect right now only allows 4 to 7 depending on location. The new OP that allows 17 is not in effect yet. This is why the new OP was adopted. If developers can turn 4/7 into. 17/18 what will they get away with when the New OP actually allows 17.

@CutthebullSmith @sunlorrie Just look at what DF (Mini Me Trump) says and AH becomes a paragon of https://t.co/doyhLkHDJj contest in the smarts department.

@dgbrent @MariannMeedWard MMW's campaign is called "Better Burlington". She is providing information on this only. Not advocating or supporting. In fact she is the only member of council consistently pushing back against this kind of overdevelopment. Fight overdevelopment.
Vote for a Better Burlinton.

@TorontoBlue @SaveBurlington @RickGoldring @MLTPlanner @MariannMeedWard @GregDWoodruff @engagedcob The same professional advice that made council too late to reject the lakeshore 26 storey? Then appealed that at the OMB while approving 23 storeys on Brant 1.5 blocks over?
Professional planning requires timeliness of application and consistancy of policy.

@AndreaHorwath Instead of Trumps 2% GDP on Nato, spend 2% of GDP on homeless. Both domiciled and Trumpian migrants. Spend on people not arms and hold those responsible for migrants leaving safe 3rd countries to account.
