Jilian believes that our voice needs to be heard in Parliament:

• My voice will add to those in Ottawa to really make a difference in our lovely country and riding.
• Active in the communities of Toronto and Peel, she has been involved with Canadian Psychiatric Awareness Committee, The Canadian National Exhibition, and the Mayors Task Force on Drugs.
• Jilian is pleased that TAVIS is being implemented in our area and knows that it will bring tremendous improvements to our community. Crime and prevention is one of her top concerns.

• Jilian has long been involved with conservative politics.
• She has had election experience including running for office.
