Polls close at 8pm

Thank you to Keanin Loomis, Scarlett Gillespie and our current mayor Andrea Horwath for making the time to do these interviews. Their willingness to do them in Gore Park and really just all around giving me a chance.

I think it’s important that everyone has access to the information needed to make a thoughtful decision.

It has be an honour to play any kind of roll in helping Hamiltonians stay informed on that decision.

While I have you, I’m trying to get a job with CBC as they launch their new radio division in Hamilton so if anyone knows anyone there maybe put in a good word for me 😅😂

Anyways Oskee wee wee..

& vote 🗳️

Misogyny has no place in our democracy. Yet throughout this municipal election campaign, I and other candidates have experienced firsthand the hatred and harassment that women and marginalized candidates face when they dare to seek public office.

The CBC's reporting on misogyny during election campaigns shines a light on a serious problem: who gets to participate in democracy, who is made to feel unwelcome, and who is expected to endure abuse simply to have their voice heard?

Throughout this campaign, I have faced hateful slurs targeting my identity as a trans woman and my history as a sex worker, harassment, and threats to my safety. Even people volunteering their time to support my campaign have been targeted. This goes far beyond legitimate political disagreement.

When candidates are intimidated because of who they are, it is not just the individual who suffers. Our entire community loses the perspectives and leadership of people who are already underrepresented in positions of power.

I am running for Mayor of Hamilton because working-class people, tenants, disabled residents, sex workers, and marginalized communities deserve a voice at City Hall. Those of us who understand exclusion and inequality should not have to surrender our right to participate in public life to make others comfortable.

I refuse to let hatred dictate who gets to lead.

My campaign is about accountability, dignity, accessibility, and building a city that works for everyone. That means confronting misogyny, racism, transphobia, and harassment rather than accepting them as the price of participating in politics.

We should be able to disagree about policy without attacking one another's humanity. We should be able to run for office, volunteer, organize, and participate in our democracy without fear of intimidation.

Hamilton deserves better. Democracy belongs to all of us, not just those who can withstand the most abuse.

I will continue to stand up for a Hamilton where everyone has a voice, everyone deserves dignity, and nobody is forced out of public life by hatred.

Please Vote Scarlett for Mayor of the @CityofHamilton

Andrea Horwath explains why “he who shall not be named” lacks the experience required to be the mayor of Hamilton, and we don’t need Rob Cooper to take us backwards and that’s why people shouldn’t “hit the reset button and just keep moving the city forward”
