The City’s Election-Related Resources Policy (ERRP) and its Procedure prohibits Members of Council who are seeking re-election in a municipal election from using their office budgets and staff for newsletters and general communications from August 25, 2022, up to and including October 24, 2022. As a sitting Member of Council, I must adhere to the City’s ERRP, meaning that this website will not be updated during the blackout period. My office remains open to deal with day-to-day constituency matters.
La Politique sur les ressources liées aux élections (PRLE) de la Ville et ses Procédures interdisent aux membres du Conseil sollicitant un nouveau mandat dans une élection municipale d’utiliser leur budget de circonscription et le personnel de leur bureau pour produire des bulletins et diffuser des communications générales du 25 août 2022 jusqu’au 24 octobre inclusivement. En tant que membre en exercice du Conseil, je dois me conformer aux dispositions de la PRLE, ce qui signifie que ce site Web ne sera pas mis à jour durant la période d’interdiction. Par ailleurs, mon bureau demeure ouvert pour traiter des affaires courantes du quartier.
