To the friends who are side by side with me throughout my campaign this municipal election:
I am wholeheartedly thankful for all your hardwork. It's no joke that we have made it this far. All of you have given your time, talents, and efforts - despite everyone's busy life - to keep us focused on what is important throughout this campaign: the people.
I can honestly say, I have the best team of all! We did our best!

To my neighbours, the people of Ward 4, I am honoured to have met most of you while canvassing. Thank you for your time & effort voicing your concerns.
The results are a tough pill to swallow for Ward 4. We are not getting the representation we want. Susan has barely 28% of the vote -- and she 'earned' that by hiding her more controversial viewpoints. I wish we still had ranked ballots. The progressive options earned 57% of the vote. London is actually a lot more progressive than this council will look.
For the people who supported, voted, and believed in me - Thank you! We must still fight for what we want for our ward and our city. Susan officially represents us and we have to vocalise our viewpoints when she goes against our majority perspective over the next four years between elections. I will be there fighting alongside you.
Friendly neighbour,
Jarad
