Ava will fight to make life easier for the working class by enacting policies that lower the cost of living and strengthen our social safety net.

Biography

submitted by the candidate or their team
As a stay-at-home mom for the past 12 years, Ava has had a front-row seat to all of the struggles impacting working-class families today.

As a hard-working mother, Ava truly understands the everyday struggles faced in Hastings—Lennox and Addington—Tyendinaga. Raising six children, a dog, a cat, a bunny, and chickens in Marmora, Ava has to face the same challenges that most Canadians are facing today: trying to balance rising prices at the grocery store, the cost of fuel, costs of medications, and livestock feed.

Driven by the desire to be a representative of the hard-working people of her constituency – not Bay Street – Ava will fight to best represent the true needs of her neighbours and listen to what matters most to them. At a time when our economy is under attack by Trump’s tariffs and our sovereignty as a nation is threatened, it's time for a government that actually represents the people of our country and not just the top 1%. Together we are strong, together we win.

Reason for running

submitted by the candidate or their team
Ava wanted a candidate that prioritised the needs of working-class families over the wants of the rich. When she couldn't find one in the current pool of candidates in the riding, she decided to change that!
