Speaking here as an individual and not on behalf of the @hamiltonlabour, who hasn't even considered an endorsement process for the municipal elections yet, I just want to outline some of the things I'm happy and excited for in the #HamOnt October municipal elections.

Obviously @jayotied for Public School Board Trustee running in Wards 6 & 9 is closest to my heart and part of necessary change at the HWDSB trustee level.
We'll be on the streets starting next week and campaign donations can be sent by e-Transfer to [e-mail].

We're also looking for sign locations in Wards 6 & 9 (East Mountain and Upper Stoney Creek) if you know anyone who lives there.

That said, the announcement of HWDSB Trustee runs from @sabreina_dahab (Ward 2) and @AhonaMehdi (Ward 8 & 14) is another positive indication of coming change.

I'm happy to hear about the renewed commitment to run from @NrinderWard3 (Ward 3) and @ward1wilson (Ward 1) who have struggled within our current City Council against sometimes impossible odds to help make positive change.

I am excited for the election of @CameronKroetsch in Ward 2 and @EasyThePianoMan for Ward 14 as a further step in helping our City Council be guided by voices who bring vibrant, necessary new perspectives to the table.
I'm further excited by announcements I know are yet to come.

Comrades, we have a real chance to make some meaningful change in Hamilton this October. I'm not content to stew in the miasma of a Doug Ford majority for several weeks waiting for a better time to bring this up.

If you live in any of these wards, contact these candidates NOW and offer to help!
Change doesn't start four weeks before an election; it starts NOW!
