Profile

I'm Kurtis McAleer and I'm running to be our next Regional Councillor for Ward 3. I've lived in Ajax for nearly 15 years and I consider myself very lucky to now be raising a family here. I previously served our community as the Chair of the Durham Youth Council.

I'm running in this election because I Believe in Ajax. I want Ajax to become a leader in job creation and economic growth. We need good paying, local jobs to ensure that Ajacians can live, work, play and grow a family here in Ajax.

Transit - I've committed to a few things in regards to transit starting with an affordable Universal High School Pass. I also believe we need to allow youth under 12 to ride for free. DRT also needs to become more reliable so our residents can rely on it to commute.

Jobs - We need to attract good jobs to Ajax. Jobs that are well paying so that families can afford to live and work in our community. The revitalization of the Ajax Plaza is also an important part of our future economic development. I will always fight for more local jobs.
