Ottawa’s strength lies in its people and the diverse communities that call it home. We need leaders who listen, value multiculturalism, and balance community needs with the long-term interests of our city.

I appreciate Councillors Cathy Curry (Kanata North) and Allan Hubley (Kanata South) and Mayor Mark Sutcliffe, for their dedication to Ottawa and their engagement with its communities.

As we consider our city’s future, an honest understanding of the challenges ahead, realistic commitments, and thoughtful planning deserve our confidence.

Where do Ottawa’s mayoral candidates stand on truck traffic in Manotick?

With Election Day approaching, we looked at what Mark Sutcliffe and Neil Saravanamuttoo have publicly said about transportation and the future of through-truck traffic in our community.

MCCATT has also contacted both candidates directly to ask what they would do about truck traffic on Bridge Street. As of publication, we haven’t received a response.

Swipe through to see what we could verify and what questions remain unanswered.

Before you vote, ask the candidates where they stand.

Manotick residents deserve clear answers about the issues affecting their community.

Our goal remains the same: safer streets, action on through-truck traffic, and a solution that preserves access for local deliveries.

Good evening, everyone.

I’m truly honoured to receive this Lifetime Achievement Award from Volunteer Ottawa. Thank you to everyone who made this possible. It really means a lot to me.

When I came to Canada 28 years ago, I was starting a new chapter in my life. I remember a time when I was struggling financially, and a stranger stepped in to help me. That person didn’t have to do anything for me, but they did, and I’ve never forgotten it.

That experience taught me something I’ve carried with me ever since. Sometimes, a small act of kindness can make a big difference in someone’s life.

Growing up, I also learned a lot from my grandmother. She always believed in sharing food with people who needed it. It didn’t matter how much she had, there was always something to share. That has stayed with me throughout my life and my career as a chef.

In Indian culture, we have a saying, Atithi Devo Bhava, which means the guest is God. For me, that’s what cooking and hospitality are all about. Making people feel welcome, bringing people together, and sharing what you have.

I’ve been very fortunate to build my life and career here in Ottawa. This city has given me so many opportunities, and giving back is my way of showing my appreciation.

I also want to congratulate all the other award recipients tonight: Carina Chiew, Diane Hayes, Brenda Okorogba, Janice Horton, Enbridge, Big Brothers Big Sisters Ottawa, and Perley Health. It’s wonderful to see so many people and organizations doing great work in our community.

Thank you to Volunteer Ottawa for this recognition and for bringing everyone together to celebrate the people who give so much of themselves to others.

I’m grateful for this award, but I also know there is still more to do. I hope to keep giving back, sharing food, and helping people in whatever way I can.

Thank you so much. This means a lot to me. #ottawa #coconutlagoon #mythali

Is Ottawa safe to walk with a stroller? I asked the mayoral candidates 🚸 Stroller Walk Part 4 of 4

Narrow sidewalks, missing curb cuts, a crosswalk light that gives you seven seconds, and a pickup truck that doesn’t stop. If you push a stroller in this city, you know.

For the last episode, I asked all four 2026 Ottawa mayoral candidates (Mark Sutcliffe @_marksutcliffe, Jeff Leiper @jleiper, Alex Lawson @alexlawsonottawa and Neil Saravanamuttoo @saravanamuttoo) the same question: what will you do to make Ottawa’s streets, sidewalks and intersections safe for kids and families?

Save this before you vote. Send it to the parent in your group chat who’s still undecided, and to anyone who has ever had to roll a stroller out onto the road because the sidewalk ended.

Management issues at OC Transpo 🚏🚍🚫

Another key issue with OC Transpo has been management.

Back in 2022, General Manager John Mcnconi helped conceal critical information from City Council on the LRT’s struggles to pass testing criteria, following his departure, OC Transpo hired Renée Amilcar who focused mainly on launching the “New Ways to Bus” route redesign, with the latter being blasted as a cost cutting measure, after she left OC Transpo, the city chose to hire former Toronto Transit Commission CEO Rick Leary. Rick’s hiring has been criticised by some due to past allegations of workplace bullying and harassment during his time with the TTC.

I was curious to know what Mark and Jeff thought of working with Rick Leary on council, and if they have faith in him operating OC Transpo.

This is a clip from my new documentary WHO’S GOING TO FIX TRANSIT? available for free on YouTube.

Voting day in Ottawa is October 26th!
