Seniors Told to Take Reverse Mortgages While Taxes Keep Rising

The Mayor of Pickering says “we were elected to make decisions on behalf of the people.”
Well — I was elected too.

And I can almost guarantee that 100% of the people who voted for me, and at least 95% of all residents across Pickering and Durham, do not want higher taxes.

People are already struggling. Seniors are trying to stay in the homes they worked their entire lives to pay off. Families are choosing between food and fuel.

And when concerns were raised about seniors being pushed out of their homes by rising taxes, the Mayor’s response was for them to take out a reverse mortgage — to borrow against their homes just to survive government-imposed costs.

That is not compassion.
That is not fiscal responsibility.
That is your government telling seniors to liquidate their dignity instead of changing priorities.

Being elected does not give you a mandate to ignore hardship.
It gives you a duty to protect the people — not push them further into debt.

I will not support higher taxes while residents are already in survival mode.
