Spent the evening with Kiwanis Eastern Ottawa at their public info session and it was a really strong conversation about what’s happening across our city. This is a group that does a lot behind the scenes, especially supporting those who need it most, and it shows. We had a great discussion and started mapping out more community-inclusive events that bring people together and strengthen connections across Ottawa. Good to see Council colleague Jeff Leiper stop by as well, alongside a strong focus on the important work Kiwanis continues to lead in our community. Really encouraging to see the turnout and the energy in the room. If you’ve ever thought about getting involved, this is a great group to connect with: vist.ly/4xxt4 - J’ai passé la soirée avec Kiwanis Eastern Ottawa lors de leur séance d’information publique, et ce fut une excellente discussion sur ce qui se passe partout dans notre ville. C’est un groupe qui accomplit énormément de travail en coulisses, notamment pour soutenir les personnes qui en ont le plus besoin, et ça se voit. Nous avons eu de très bons échanges et commencé à réfléchir à de nouvelles initiatives inclusives qui rassemblent les gens et renforcent les liens à travers Ottawa. Content de voir mon collègue du Conseil Jeff Leiper être présent également, tout en gardant le cap sur l’important travail que Kiwanis poursuit dans notre communauté. Très encourageant de voir la participation et l’énergie dans la salle. Si vous souhaitez vous impliquer, c’est un excellent groupe avec qui entrer en contact : vist.ly/4xxt4

HELP OUT. At the Gloucester Hockey Association Finals this weekend, we are helping our friends at @EORCOttawa to collect food donations. We challenge our fellow associations to provide more donations than we will make. There will be a box for each of us. This is going to be fun.

ELECTRIC BUS UPDATE Here’s where things stand right now. We’re currently at 90 electric buses in service, up from 48 in the last update. That’s an increase of 42 buses. Real progress, but we should be closer to 124 buses by now. That gap matters. It impacts service, reliability, and how quickly we can respond when things go wrong. At committee today, I pushed hard to get a clear number on the diesel bus fleet. Right now, that number still isn’t being shared. That’s a problem. Electric buses are only part of the picture. Diesel buses are still carrying a significant portion of the system, especially when electric buses are down or unavailable. Without that number, we don’t have a full understanding of our capacity. We need both numbers. We need transparency. And most importantly, we need enough buses on the road to actually deliver reliable service. I’ll keep pushing until we get answers, and until the system is where it needs to be.

ELECTRIC BUS UPDATE An update was just published to the electric bus tracking dashboard I requested, and I want to share where things stand as of January. If you’ve been following along, the target at this point was 106 electric buses in service. The dashboard now shows 48 electric buses currently in service, up from 36 in the last update. That’s an increase of 12 buses since December, which is progress, but still well short of where we were supposed to be. You can see this clearly in the Gantt chart, which lays out the original delivery and deployment timeline versus where we are today. The gap between planned and actual deployment continues to be a concern. Over the past couple of months, I’ve also been requesting the same level of transparency for the diesel bus fleet, including a clear and regularly updated count. That information is still not publicly available. Because fleet availability directly affects service reliability, this matters to riders and to my constituents. If that information isn’t going to be shared in a clear and accessible way, I’m going to go ahead and create my own dashboard to keep track of this. ( Continue down thread to see previous back to July )

That sense of urgency? It’s not a mistake on your part – it’s the strategy. Fraudsters are trained to trigger panic so you act fast and stop thinking clearly. We see it every day. Slow down. Hang up. Verify before you agree. Call your bank or the CRA directly, and talk to someone you trust before sending money. 💰 #FraudPrevention ~ Ce sentiment d’urgence? Ce n’est pas un hasard — c’est leur stratégie. Les fraudeurs misent sur la panique pour vous pousser à agir vite, sans réfléchir. On le voit tous les jours. Prenez un moment. Raccrochez. Vérifiez avant d’accepter. Communiquez directement avec votre banque ou l’ARC, et parlez-en à une personne de confiance avant d’envoyer de l’argent. 💰 #PréventionFraude

Today is the International Day of Pink. 💗 It’s a reminder that the kind of community we build every day matters. One where people feel safe, respected, and included, no matter who they are. Standing up against bullying, discrimination, homophobia, and transphobia isn’t just about one day, it’s about how we show up for each other, in our schools, workplaces, and across our city. Kindness isn’t complicated, but it makes a real difference. #InternationalDayOfPink Aujourd’hui, c’est la Journée internationale du rose. 💗 C’est un rappel que le type de communauté que nous bâtissons chaque jour compte. Une communauté où chacun se sent en sécurité, respecté et inclus, peu importe qui il est. S’opposer à l’intimidation, à la discrimination, à l’homophobie et à la transphobie, ce n’est pas qu’une question d’une journée, c’est une façon d’agir au quotidien, dans nos écoles, nos milieux de travail et partout dans notre ville. La bienveillance, ce n’est pas compliqué, mais ça change tout.

This morning’s appreciation breakfast at City Hall was a well-deserved moment to recognize the volunteers behind the Ottawa Winter Trail Network. Thank you to Council colleague @tm_kavanagh for hosting and continuing to champion this work. These trails don’t maintain themselves. They rely on people who show up early, stay late, and put in the work to keep them safe, accessible, and enjoyable all winter long. That kind of commitment matters. I’ve always been a strong supporter of Heritage Ski East, and seeing the broader network come together really highlights the impact of volunteer-driven outdoor spaces across our city. A sincere thank you to everyone who makes winter in Ottawa something people can get out and enjoy. - Le déjeuner de reconnaissance tenu ce matin à l’hôtel de ville était un moment bien mérité pour souligner le travail des bénévoles du Ottawa Winter Trail Network. Merci à ma collègue au Conseil Theresa Kavanagh pour l’organisation de cet événement et pour son engagement constant envers ce réseau. Ces sentiers ne s’entretiennent pas seuls. Ils reposent sur des bénévoles qui donnent de leur temps, souvent dans des conditions difficiles, pour les garder accessibles et sécuritaires tout au long de l’hiver. Cet engagement fait toute la différence. J’ai toujours été un fier appui de Heritage Ski East, et voir l’ensemble du réseau réuni rappelle à quel point ces espaces sont importants pour notre communauté. Un grand merci à toutes celles et ceux qui contribuent à faire de l’hiver à Ottawa une saison dont on peut pleinement profiter.

Today, I joined Prime Minister @MarkJCarney and @ChiefNish for a tour of @PeelPolice 22 Division to discuss practical steps to enhance public safety in Brampton and across Canada. There is strong momentum across all levels of government to fulfill our respective responsibilities and confront organized crime head-on. From the new lawful access legislation and improved digital evidence capabilities to meaningful bail reform, we are taking real action to protect our communities.

Federation of Canadian Municipalities
FCM welcomes today’s launch of the federal government’s Build Communities Strong Fund. Municipal infrastructure is the backbone of the Canadian economy. Across the country, municipalities are using federal infrastructure funding to get infrastructure projects moving this construction season. With the Direct Delivery Stream, we can accelerate projects and deliver the housing and infrastructure Canadians need—faster. The Community Stream remains the bedrock of federal infrastructure funding—proven, reliable and scalable. We look forward to working with the federal government on a national infrastructure plan that matches the pace and scale of our shared ambitions on housing, trade diversification and economic growth—and dedicated funding for rural and northern communities. #CDNMuni #cdnpoli

Fédération canadienne des municipalités
La FCM salue le lancement du Fonds pour bâtir des collectivités fortes du gouvernement fédéral. Les infrastructures municipales sont le pilier de l’économie canadienne. D’un océan à l’autre, les municipalités mettent à profit le financement fédéral pour les infrastructures afin de faire avancer les projets dès cette saison de construction. Grâce au volet de prestation directe, nous pouvons accélérer le démarrage des projets et livrer plus rapidement les logements et les infrastructures dont la population canadienne a besoin. Le volet communautaire demeure l’assise du financement fédéral pour les infrastructures : un outil éprouvé, fiable et adaptable. Nous avons hâte de collaborer avec le gouvernement fédéral à l’élaboration d’un plan national d’infrastructures à la hauteur de nos ambitions communes en matière de logement, de diversification des échanges commerciaux et de croissance économique, avec un financement dédié aux collectivités rurales et nordiques. #munican #polcan
