Kristina Tesser Derksen, Milton East—Halton Hills South

Liberal
“I have been the member of Parliament for Milton East—Halton Hills South for one year. In that time, I helped bring $2.9 million for affordable housing to Georgetown and added 100 summer jobs for young people. I will keep working to help the people in my community.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, one year ago, the people of Milton East—Halton Hills South placed their trust in me to represent them in the House. It is an honour I carry proudly every day. In that time, we have delivered real results. We have secured $2.9 million for affordable housing in Georgetown, and we are just getting started. Through the Canada summer jobs program, we have increased opportunities for young people by adding 100 positions this year, which is an increase of nearly 85%. I have shown up, and I have listened. I have acted by helping residents in Milton and Georgetown navigate federal services and by cutting through red tape when it mattered most. I am so grateful for the support of my family, my community, my wonderful staff, my fabulous colleagues and for the leadership of the Prime Minister, who is focused on bringing Canadians together, uniting people across regions and across party lines. We are one year in, and there is still so much more to do. I will keep working every day to deliver for Georgetown and Milton.
