As a OneCity Park Board Commissioner, Caitlin will work to increase green space and facilities in underserved and growing communities, and maintain parks for future generations. Caitlin recognizes parks as important sites for respecting Indigenous laws and responsibilities, and will work to support Indigenous parks governance.

Reason for running
submitted by the candidate or their team
I see parks and public spaces as central to tackling climate change and readying our community for its impacts. They are important sites for recognizing and upholding Indigenous laws and jurisdiction, and for building inclusive communities.
With that, I am committed to lasting impact supported by three main advocacies: Climate Mitigation, Indigenous Rights Recognition, and Climate Resiliency
