Marty Simms is a dedicated individual with a clear vision for change, driven by both personal experience and a sense of civic responsibility. As an IT consultant, legal guardian to his autistic son, and someone with deep roots in Ottawa, he brings a unique perspective to his political aspirations. His background—growing up on Southmore Drive, living in Lowertown, and being the son of a WW2 veteran and CRA tax expert—likely shapes his practical, community-focused approach.
His alignment with the People’s Party of Canada (PPC) reflects his rejection of mainstream parties like the Liberals and Conservatives, particularly their ties to the military-industrial complex. His policy prioritizes objecting to the $143 billion already spent on Ukraine and redirect more funding foreign wars to domestic needs like building communities with affordable housing, disability programming, border security, and tackling the fentanyl crisis. I am proud of my Canadian heritage. Canadians are rich in spirit. Canada is worth saving. A nation can be judged on how well it treats their disabled community. His emphasis on freedom of speech, bodily autonomy, and human rights, alongside his participation in peaceful demonstrations, paints him as a principled advocate for individual liberties.
Running for Parliament in the Vanier-Gloucester riding, Mr. Simms is motivated to translate his ideas into tangible action.
