When I walk into a meeting, I don\u2019t bring political baggage, alliances, or old divisions. No one can say \u201cshe\u2019s with this group\u201d or \u201cshe\u2019s against that one.\u201d I come with an open mind, an open heart, and mutual respect for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe leadership starts with the ability to listen, speak clearly, and connect with anyone. I make the effort to reach out because I believe we have to try \u2014 otherwise, we\u2019ll never know what\u2019s possible. That\u2019s how I build relationships and bring people together, even when perspectives differ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every leader is capable of doing good \u2014 and of making mistakes. What matters is being willing to admit when something doesn\u2019t work, recalibrate, and do better for the community. That\u2019s the approach I promise to bring &#8212; humility, honesty, and a genuine focus on serving people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want to help start a movement where those who step forward to lead are people who do what they say \u2014 not just talk. My disagreements with others never stop me from working respectfully and finding common ground. Yes, we all have egos, but I\u2019ve learned to keep mine in check \u2014 and I promise, if ever I can\u2019t, that will be the day I step down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m asking for your vote because I bring a fresh perspective, rooted in lived experience, community service, and the everyday challenges of being a mother and neighbour. I want to see a Township where words are matched by action, where collaboration replaces division, and where we work together for a thriving future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-column-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"background-color:#38b6ff\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/reshasabti.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/platform-photo-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-115\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reshasabti.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/platform-photo-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/reshasabti.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/platform-photo-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/reshasabti.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/platform-photo-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/reshasabti.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/platform-photo-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/reshasabti.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/platform-photo.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Platform Byelection Oct 25: Let\u2019s choose a councillor who puts community first!
