Q12 - If elected, would you intentionally include, and work in partnership with, the Algonquin Anishinaabe people and other Indigenous people in the creation and implementation of environmental policies?

John Redins

Yes. Some maps show Ottawa as Mohawk Territory.

Hussein Mahmoud

Yes. I believe we need to do better at consulting with all our communities, including the Algonquin Anishinaabe people and other Indigenous communities on a regular basis. Especially regarding community development, infrastructure, and other policy areas that all require a green lens and are rooted in environmental issues

Taylor Houstoun

Yes. Entirely I would. They are the traditional stewards of this land and have had historical injustices perpetrated against them. They deserve a seat at the table for their voices to be heard and their ideas to be put into action.

Ron Keays

Yes. I will endeavor to keep lines of communication open and active, and listen to any and all concerns raised.
