Ward 8 Update from City Hall
tariffs planned have maximum effect on the states will having a minimum effect on our local economy. In response to U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods, London City Council has actively engaged in several initiatives to protect our local economy. The threats and actions against us are changing daily. I will continue to listen to concerns of our business community and constituents to best advocate for London as we respond to the threats against our country. NOTICE Improvements are coming for the Hyde Park North Stormwater Management Facility at 1695 Hyde Park Rd. Plans include: new and improved pathways connecting Coronation Dr. to Hyde Park Rd., vegetation enhance- ments, fully accessible trails and vegetation pruning. For more information, contact Angela Denomme, Parks Project Coordinator,

Our unemployment rate has also dropped to 6.6%, below the Ontario average of 7.5%. While our local economy continues to lead, we are now running into headwinds. Tariffs brought in by the U.S. President will affect our economy as will retaliatory tariffs brought as a result from our own federal government. Last week, I joined our Mayor at a meeting of the London Executive Association in a Q & A format. Listening to tariff con- cerns brought forward and informing of the actions already taken by city council. This week, I participated in a meeting with MP Peter Fragiskatos along with the Mayor, Deputy Mayor and Budget Chair allowing me to bring my perspective to the federal level both on housing (as Planning Chair) and general economic impacts. This input is vital as retaliatory tariffs are considered.
