Safer communities require strong laws, and decisive action. Our government is advancing reforms to hold repeat violent offenders accountable, strengthen law enforcement tools, protect children and vulnerable Canadians, and safeguard our national security and democratic institutions.

Canada is home to the largest coastline in the world. To protect our coastlines and communities, Canada is securing our maritime borders and strengthening safety on our waterways.
Canada is ready to be the world’s nuclear supplier of choice. By expanding CANDU into new markets and supporting Canadian expertise abroad, we are creating opportunities for workers, businesses and communities here at home. #CANDU #Export #CanadaExport #CanadaNuclearEnergy #OakvilleWest
A proud moment for Oakville! Today, we raised the African, Caribbean and Black Canadian Appreciation Month flag at Oakville Town Hall for the third consecutive year, celebrating the histories, cultures, achievements and lasting contributions of African, Caribbean and Black Canadians. #OakvilleWest
More than 100 people came together from across Oakville West to show support for the incredible energy, momentum, and determination of our Liberal movement.

Long weekends are for making memories, not wildfires. If you’re heading outdoors this Civic Holiday weekend, check local fire restrictions, never leave a campfire unattended and fully extinguish it before leaving.
Canada is getting passenger rail back on track. Our government is investing $1.95 billion to renew VIA Rail’s long-distance, regional and remote fleet while bringing passenger locomotive assembly back to Canada for the first time in more than 25 years.
Freedom and dignity are not negotiable. On World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, we stand with survivors and reaffirm our commitment to ending exploitation in Canada and around the world.
Small businesses power Canada’s economy. That’s why Canada’s new government is introducing the Small Business Procurement Program, simplifying requirements, reducing bid preparation times, and giving Canadian entrepreneurs a fair shot at securing government contracts.
Canadian energy is reaching new markets. The new agreement between Ksi Lisims LNG and Uniper will bring Canadian natural gas to Europe, creating good-paying jobs, growing our economy and strengthening our trade resilience.

Oakville has lost a dedicated public servant. I am deeply saddened by the passing of Ward 5 Councillor Marc Grant. For 23 years, he served our community with dedication and a genuine commitment to making Oakville a better place.
Building Canada’s defence here at home. Our government is partnering with General Dynamics Land Systems–Canada to build 190 additional Armoured Combat Support Vehicles for the Canadian Armed Forces.
Safer communities start with action. This past session, we passed important legislation to strengthen protections for victims and survivors, reinforce border security, reform bail and sentencing, and combat hate-motivated crime.
Women belong at the forefront of Canada’s future. Through the Women’s Economic and Leadership Fund, our government is investing $100 million to open more doors for women and girls in STEM, the skilled trades and emerging industries.
Every woman and girl deserves to live free from violence and discrimination, and to have every opportunity to succeed.
Oakville is stronger when women are at the table. I’m thrilled to announce that this summer, we are launching the Oakville West Liberal Women’s Commission, a new space for women in our community to connect, lead and make their voices heard. #OakvilleWestLiberalWomensCommission #OakvilleWest
Soccer that builds more than skills. It was wonderful visiting Royal City Soccer Club and meeting the young people gaining valuable work experience through Canada Summer Jobs.
Young talent is helping Bronte thrive! It was wonderful to visit the Bronte BIA and see how the Canada Summer Jobs program is creating meaningful employment opportunities for youth while supporting our vibrant local community.
Protecting Canada means defending every coast, and the waters beneath them. Through the largest defence procurement in Canadian history, our government is advancing the Royal Canadian Navy’s next submarine fleet. #CanadianSubmarine #DefenceIndustry #OakvilleWest

Congratulations to the Halton Black History Awareness Society on the opening of its 9th Annual Emancipation Art Exhibition - honouring Emancipation and showcasing the remarkable talents of African and Afro-Caribbean artists in our community.

Women belong at the forefront of Canada’s fastest-growing industries, and we are helping open the doors to get them there.

Oakville West is home to so many remarkable young people, and it is always a privilege to celebrate their achievements. It was a pleasure to welcome Ayca Su Yesildag, valedictorian of Garth Webb Secondary School’s Class of 2026 and congratulate her academic excellence and leadership.
