Supporting and serving citizens – we’ve compiled a list of resources that can help you with challenges you may be facing.
Money talks. How and where we spend our dollars has ripple effects through our economy, and buying local is one of the best ways to steer it in the right direction. Yet as I walk around NDG I see so many small businesses being forced to close. I’ll work hard to reverse that trend.

As a woman and a mother, I’ve experienced firsthand the barriers that women often encounter when it comes to equal treatment and access to opportunity. As MNA I’ll continue to strive to empower the women of NDG and Montreal West in every way that I can.

Today Quebec’s energy future remains uncertain. We need a plan to meet Quebec’s energy needs over the long term while also reducing emissions: energy that is not only clean, but green.

Food insecurity has skyrocketed over the last two years due in large part to rising inflation. We know this because the community organizations that offer food services have seen a significant spike in demand in that same period, and I’ll continue to support those organizations in every way that I can.

Quebec is in the midst of a healthcare crisis, which came into sharp focus during the COVID-19 pandemic. We need to do better to take care of our sick and our elderly, which we can do by increasing the number of family doctors and other healthcare professionals, investing in infrastructure and implementing a range of commonsense policies that put the health of Quebecers first.

Housing in NDG and across Quebec is becoming less and less affordable, especially for young people and families with multiple children. I am committed to reviving a number of the social housing projects in NDG that have remained shuttered for years, and am committed to being part of the solution when it comes to addressing the housing crisis more broadly.

I’m a strong believer in using public and active transit to get around. Whether it’s taking a bus or a BIXI bike, the metro or the train, NDG and Montreal West have a great many ways to get around without driving a car.

It is essential not only to work in the interest of young people but to include them in decision-making. I applaud the establishment of a “Chair for generations” on the municipal council of the Côtes-des-Neiges-Notre-Dame-de-Grâce borough, and am planning to implement something similar at the provincial level.
