I’ve called Beaches-East York home for over 15 years. Since I ran in 2022, I’ve continued to stand up for our community when we’ve been faced with challenges and against growing inequalities.
I’ve been a champion for safer streets, fought for tenants’ rights and more affordable housing, and advocated for investing in our social services and public programs.
I’m a proud resident of Ward 19 and I believe in vibrant neighbourhoods, safe communities, better public transit, protecting our public spaces and parks, and making sure we can all thrive here.
I’m an experienced non-profit management professional with a solid understanding of how our municipal government works and who it's supposed to work for.
You deserve a representative at City Hall who listens, who is responsive, and who deeply cares for our community.
Let’s build the city we want, together!

Canvass with Team Jennie!
9x,
2 Locations
This campaign is about talking to thousands of residents across the ward about how we make this city work better for the many and not the few. And to do this, we need you.
Join an upcoming canvass (or two!) and learn how to have positive conversations with Beaches-East Yorkers about accessible local representation, connected communities, beautiful public spaces and more!
No prior experience is required. All canvasses start with a training and you will be paired up with a partner if you are new to this. We can't wait to see you!

Look for the Pink Picnic Blanket - East Lynn Park, Danforth Avenue, Toronto, ON, Canada
Come hangout with Jennie and friends every Thursday at East Lynn Park! Bring a book, a craft project, your burning questions about municipal politics and you're all set! This is a space for volunteers, those curious about Jennie's campaign, and supporters to come together and get to know each other better. This is not a canvass and there will be zero door-knocking. Grab a snack from the farmers market and come join us on the big pink picnic blanket as we build community and enjoy the vibes of East Lynn Park.
