Every moment of this session, I’ve worked to keep the focus on one priority - fighting for you and your family. New Democrats continue to use their power in a minority Parliament to push the Liberal government to provide support to families during this affordability crisis.
There is much work still to do- and we’re not letting up!
One of our proudest achievements this session was making significant strides in winning dental care for all Canadians. We secured dental care for seniors, children under 18 and people living with a disability which will save families more than $1,200 a year. We forced the Liberals to introduce the Early Learning Child Care Act and a Sustainable Jobs Act in order to ensure workers have access to affordable childcare and to good-paying union jobs as we move toward a net-zero economy.
We also delivered a second GST rebate that will put almost $500 in people’s pockets this summer. We fought against grocery greedflation that is straining your family’s budget, and we delivered much-needed funding for Indigenous housing across the country.
This session, we have tabled our own bill to provide a framework for a public and universal pharmacare program, which would provide free medication for all.
Many Canadians are still struggling with the sky-high prices of groceries, unaffordable rent and mortgages that have increased by hundreds of dollars almost overnight. This is unacceptable.
Canadians need a government that works for them and their families not just the ultra-wealthy at those at the very top. Liberals and Conservatives are still ignoring the corporate greed of rich CEOs that is driving up costs for hardworking people. And New Democrats will keep fighting to change that until we form government.
This summer, my team and I will be in many community events in New Westminster and Burnaby. Please come by and say hello. Alternatively, please contact me via phone: (604)-775-5707, or email: [email protected].

Dear Neighbours,
I hope you and your family are doing well.
It’s an honour to serve as your Member of Parliament in New Westminster – Burnaby, one of the most culturally diverse communities in Canada.
On Monday, New Democrats announced the implementation of the NDP’s national dental care program, which will save millions of families across Canada around $1,300 a year. In my riding of New Westminster – Burnaby, over 26,000 seniors, people living with a disability, and families struggling to pay the bills will no longer have to choose between a visit to the dentist or keep a roof over their head.
