Tomorrow, you have a chance to forever change the image of our city. For too long, we have been a city of industry, with many people passing through who only see the view along Burlington Street. Tomorrow, we need to commit to becoming a destination, and not another stop along the highway to the Toronto downtown and waterfront or the Niagara Falls downtown. We need to have confidence that others will see in our community, the promise we know is there. You have a big responsibility tomorrow, one that will impact future generations of Hamilton. Do we want to remain smokestacks on the way to Expressways that lead to more Parkways and eventually a big box stadium alone in a field or do we want to be a vibrant, colourful destination, with people wandering, and interacting and spending?

The Hamilton Waterfront and West Harbour will show our city in a new light and be a beacon drawing people to it. They will stay and play. They will eat and shop. They will have a choice of how to get to it: walking, biking, transit or car. They will contribute to a larger sense of community by being amongst other citizens of Hamilton and visitors.

Do the right thing tomorrow and honour your duty as elected representatives: Vote West Harbour.

My vote for you depends on it.
