Welcome to the Blog

Hi folks,

This site is both a community resource, and it was also the home of my 2026 Municipal Election Campaign. This page is where I will post shorter written updates between videos and site updates.

A few things you can expect from me here:

Plain language, always. If anyone can’t explain something simply, they don’t yet understand it well enough. I will tell you as much rather than bluffing, and I’ll let you know when I get it wrong or when the information is updated, such as in my “Changes and Corrections” list over on The Record (Of Your Current Council).

Substance over spectacle. I won’t post for the sake of posting. When there is something worth saying, I will say it – and when there’s nothing to say, I’ll stay quiet.

Accessible by design. Every video on this site carries subtitles and a full transcript, and I can print and deliver anything I publish here to you or a neighbour or family member, at my cost to print and bring it over, if getting online is not easy for you. Just ask.

Honest about the hard things. I will share what I know and admit what I don’t.

If I write something that resonates with you – or something you disagree with – I would genuinely like to hear about it. You can reach me at 613-849-7762 or info@buildabettermadoctownship.ca.

Thanks for reading.

– Ben
