Through initiatives such as the recently announced $200 taxpayer rebate, aimed at helping families manage rising costs, Laura is helping address the financial pressures facing Ontario households.
“Representing Thornhill is an honour and a responsibility I hold close to my heart,” said Smith. “By focusing on affordability, we’re not only easing the burden on families but creating a community where people can thrive. I am committed to ensuring Thornhill remains a vibrant and affordable place to live, work, and grow.”
