Happy Thanksgiving, Prescott! 🍂

Today is a chance to appreciate the people who make our community feel like home: our families, friends, neighbours, volunteers, local businesses, and everyone who contributes in their own way.

I’m grateful to be part of such a welcoming and connected community.

Wishing you and your loved ones a safe, happy, and restful Thanksgiving.

My door is always open.

We may not agree on every decision, but residents should always have the opportunity to ask questions, raise concerns, and be heard.

That’s what transparency and local leadership should look like.

Thank you Tanya Henry Candidate for Augusta Councillor for your post about the positive working environment between Augusta Township and Prescott, Ontario (Official)

I’ve known Gauri for more than my two terms on Augusta Council, and in that time, I’ve seen firsthand the passion and commitment he brings to every project. He is a strong advocate for the community, and a caring and effective mayor. Having worked closely with him over the past 8 years, I’ve seen how much he cares about our municipalities and how much he is dedicated to making them better places.I am proud to stand behind him.
