MEET ELIZABETH
Elizabeth grew up in Mississauga-Lakeshore and has extensive work and community experience. She and her husband Jeremy are proud parents of Emma. Elizabeth knows first hand the struggles faced by parents and that is why she cares deeply about our children’s future.
A strong advocate for the riding, she pushed to improve our schools and successfully secured investments for our local hospital expansion, protected our waterfront and championed better transit.
