Shawn Skinner

27 years ago I had the honour to stand with my young family as I was sworn in as councillor for the first time. Now with young families of their own, they stand with me again as I am honoured and humbled to stand to be sworn in and take this seat once again to represent Ward 2. I am so thankful to you, the residents of Ward 2, for putting your trust in me to represent you. ... I am your voice at city hall. Never hesitate to reach out with any of your concerns and ideas.

Thank you. Thank you for putting your trust in me to do a job I love. I am honoured and thankful that you have chosen me to represent you.

To all of the candidates who put their names forward - thank you for a great and respectful campaign, we learned a lot from one another and I think that’s very important in the democratic process. Eight candidates coming forward for a ...by- election speaks volumes about the strength of our democracy. And with folks like you who are passionate about our community I have no doubt the future of our ward is very bright. To the residents of Ward 2, Thank you for putting your faith in me.
