Affordability & Housing
Fuel and transportation costs
Conservative's promises
"Conservative Deputy Leader Melissa Lantsman announced today that a Conservative government led by Pierre Poilievre will scrap the tolls on the Confederation Bridge to save residents and businesses over $50 every time they travel to the mainland." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
"This $50 million commitment will cover the operating costs for the Confederation Bridge which is currently paid for with tolls. It will end the unfair tax that Islanders have to pay just to leave their own province, keeping more of their money in their pockets." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
"Conservatives will also immediately conduct a review of federal support for the Wood Islands-Caribou ferry." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
Home construction and supply
Conservative's promise
"Conservatives will also incentivize municipalities to free up land, speed up permits and cut development charges to build 15% more homes each year." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
Home ownership
Conservative's promise
"A Poilievre government would fund this homebuyers’ tax cut by eliminating $8 billion of the Liberals’ bureaucratic housing schemes that have only driven up housing prices. Conservatives will also incentivize municipalities to free up land, speed up permits and cut development charges to build 15% more homes each year." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
Tax measures and rebates
Conservative's promise
"Poilievre announced he will cut income tax by 15%, dropping the tax rate on the lowest income tax bracket from 15% to 12.75%, meaning the average Canadian worker earning $57,000 will save $900, with two income families saving $1,800 a year. It’s time to let Canadians keep more of what they earn." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
Climate Change & the Environment
Marine conservation
Conservative's promise
"Today, Clifford Small, Conservative candidate for Central Newfoundland, announced that Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative Government will restore the seal harvest to protect harvesters’ jobs, and take back control of the seal and sea lion population that is destroying our fish stocks." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
Jobs, Businesses, & Labour
Investment
Conservative's promise
"Nothing about Canadians’ existing TFSAs would change. The existing $7,000 limit would remain, but Canadians will now be able to contribute up to an additional $5,000 a year, if that money supports Canadian companies that employ Canadian workers and pay Canadian taxes. The tax system already defines Canadian investments, and a Poilievre government will create a definition that lets financial institutions and advisors label which stocks, mutual funds and other investments can go into your Canada First TFSA Top-Up." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
Public Safety, Policing, & the Justice System
Criminal sentencing
Conservative's promise
"Specifically, Poilievre said he will impose life sentences for anyone who is convicted of:
- 5 or more counts of human trafficking.
- Importing or exporting ten or more illegal firearms.
- Fentanyl trafficking."
— conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
Seniors, Disabilities, & Retirement
Retirement savings and income
Conservative's promises
"Allow working seniors to earn up to $34,000 tax free—$10k more than now." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
Sovereignty, Foreign Relations, & the United States
Defending Canada's north
Conservative's promises
"Build at least one permanent Arctic military base within two years: CFB Iqaluit, Canada’s first permanent Arctic military base since the Cold War." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17
"Acquire two additional polar icebreakers for the Royal Canadian Navy. Poilievre also committed to delivering the two polar icebreakers the Seaspan and Davie shipyards are now building for the Coast Guard by 2029, while the Liberals refuse to provide a timeline." — conservative.ca, retrieved 2025-04-17

Reason for running
I'm running because I care deeply about our community — and I want to put my experience, energy, and heart to work for the people who live here.
This isn’t about politics-as-usual. I’ve always been someone who shows up, listens, and gets things done. Now, I want to bring your voice to Ottawa, and fight for real, practical solutions — with honesty, compassion, and determination.
I believe in this place. I believe in the people who make it home. And I know that, together, we can build something better.
My priorities:
• Making homeownership and affordable rent more achievable
• Working with local services to improve public safety
• Easing the cost of living for families and workers
I’m here to offer a different kind of leadership — one that’s grounded, accessible, and truly connected to the people. If I earn your trust, I’ll be the kind of MP who shows up, listens, and never forgets who I’m working for.
Because to me, politics is about being there — with you, and for you.
Je me suis toujours engagée sur le terrain, pas pour faire de la figuration, mais pour comprendre, écouter et surtout agir. Aujourd’hui, je veux porter ta voix, tes préoccupations, et défendre des idées qui te ressemblent, avec transparence, pragmatisme et détermination.
Je crois en notre monde, je crois en notre monde d’ici – et ensemble, on peut le rendre meilleur.
Mes priorités :
- Faciliter l’accès à la propriété et aux loyers abordables
- Renforcer la sécurité publique en collaboration avec les services locaux
- Alléger le coût de la vie pour les familles et les travailleurs
Mon approche est simple : une politique de proximité, humaine, où chaque voix compte. Je m’engage à être une députée accessible, présente et vraiment à l’écoute.
Parce que pour moi, faire de la politique, c’est avant tout être là – avec toi, pour toi, sur le terrain.
