Joanna Teliatnik for City Council Ward 18

VOTE JOANNA TELIATNIK IN WARD 18

BACK TO BASICS

Vote NO to tax increases

Vote YES to cleaner streets and parks

Vote YES to more community involvement

MY PHILOSOPHY:

Moderation and living within ones means while doing the best that we can. We need to get back to basics in running this City of ours and Ward 18 needs a councillor that will pay the proper attention to the Ward and the issues there.  We can and should be delivering excellence in the core City services.  I am neutral, not politically affiliated, and not a career politician and look forward to working with all groups in the community. I believe in keeping a limit on tax increases, and would vote to roll back and/or eliminate the land transfer tax and increased user fees which came into effect during the last administration.

Why I am the best candidate for the position.

I bring over 20 years’ experience in various levels of government to the table, the majority of that with municipalities in areas ranging from water and waste management to administration and finance and everything in between including community and business development.   I believe in the community, and all of the people who live and work there, and that they are the driving force in the direction we take and must be a part of the process.   To achieve this we all need to work together and this is the direction I want to set for the next four years in the Ward – community based and inclusive to all. Clear communication and accountability are priorities with me.

I would like to get the community groups and the BIAs working together in improving life for all of the residents and businesspeople in the Ward. In my opinion this is where it all starts – in the community with the residents and businesses.  

I lived in Ward 18 for most of my life. It is where I grew up, and where I returned to after a couple of decades working in the High Arctic for various governments.  I went to the neighbourhood schools, Alexander Muir, Gladstone and Parkdale Collegiate and still have strong ties there. It was and is a great place to live and work, and I firmly believe that we can only make it better.  The neighbourhood is where my heart is, and I believe that I can do justice to the office of City Councillor.

THANKS FOR READING. PLEASE GET OUT AND VOTE OCTOBER 25^th. WE NEED YOUR VOTE.
