The candidate wrote this at the end of his submitted answers:

The primary concerns voiced by Mississauga voters revolve around affordability, tax reduction, and housing. Furthermore, there is a pressing need to attract high-tech enterprises to bolster job opportunities in the region. If elected as mayor, I am committed to promptly reducing property taxes by 1-3%. Throughout my tenure, I will oversee the construction of 50,000 units of affordable housing and facilities for the elderly, ensuring that residents have access to suitable living accommodations. Additionally, I will spearhead the establishment of an Airport Economic Ecological Park to stimulate employment growth, foster the development of the e-commerce sector, and create job opportunities for young people through initiatives in artificial intelligence.
