WHY?

My Why

In October 2022, I ran for Brampton City Council. I lost—but what a ride that was. I learned so much. Most importantly, I discovered that I love politics.

As I walked the campaign trail and listened to you, I felt your frustration and your anger. People are hungry for change—and I felt that deeply. Your voices lit a fire in me. It pushed me to grow, to transform, and to step further into service.

That’s when I began supporting the Conservative Party of Canada. I became a delegate for Brampton South and travelled to Quebec City to learn, connect, and grow.

Service has always been at the heart of who I am. Whether as Past Chair and current Director of CARP – Chapter 52 Brampton, Co-Chair of the Summit on Aging with the Region of Peel, volunteer driver with Brampton Meals on Wheels, or President of Brampton Woman Up, I show up because I care. I’m also a businesswoman with over 35 years of experience. I own a company, serve on the board of a non-profit, and lead the national conversation around AGE-tech and smell therapy in Canada.

Rejection? That’s just a word. I’ve got thick skin. I’m an entrepreneur. I’ve failed and risen many times. I speak my mind—but I’ve also learned to listen more as I’ve grown older. I say 'no' more often. I stand up for myself, agree to disagree, and I no longer compare myself to others. I believe in Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms, especially freedom of expression. But let me be clear: I will not be harassed or abused. I’m here to do the right thing—with honesty, community spirit, and a deep desire to help others and live my best life.

In this federal election, I entered the nomination race for the Conservative Party in Brampton Centre. I fought hard. At first, my motivation was to stand against Justin Trudeau—but then, as Donald Trump re-entered the U.S. political scene, I started questioning if this election was right for me. After a year of tireless work, I made the difficult decision to withdraw my name on March 1, 2025. This election wasn’t mine—but I’m not going anywhere.

Politically, I’m not sure where I’ll go next—but I know I’ll continue to build something real. I’m working to create meaningful change here in Brampton. Our city is struggling—caught in race wars, buried under poor infrastructure planning, and crying out for real leadership. I hear you, and I’m with you.

Thank you for all the love you’ve shown. To the lady who stopped her car to hug me, the man who came to my home to tell me he was proud of me, and the family who blew kisses from across the street—you keep me going.

My daughter tells me I’ve become a better mother. My son says I’m a true leader. That’s because of you. My team starts with you. And together, we can change this city.

Thank you, my friend. Let’s work on this together.

Land Acknowledgement:

I recognize that many Indigenous Nations have longstanding relationships with the territories upon which make what we know to be Peel Region. The area known as Tkaronto has been care taken by the Anishinabek Nation, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, and the Huron-Wendat. It is now home to many First Nation, Inuit and Métis communities. We acknowledge the current treaty holders, the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. This territory is subject of the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement to peaceably share and care for the Great Lakes region.
