– my fine lady and gentlemen friends…

…Thank You, my Gratitude to everyone who voted for me in the 2026 Thunder Bay municipal election, I offer my sincere and heartfelt thanks.

…Your vote means a great deal. It represents not only your confidence in my candidacy, but also your willingness to consider different ideas, ask difficult questions, and think about the future of our community.

…Although I was not elected Mayor, I do not consider this campaign a wasted effort. I entered the race because I believe that important issues affecting the peole of our fine city of Thunder Bay deserve to be discussed openly and honestly.

…I wanted to challenge people to think beyond familiar approaches and consider what kind of city we want to build together.

…Of course, I would have preferred to win and have the opportunity to put my ideas into action. With certainty, some of my ideas will be and already have been adopted by the council to be, which is a good start. Nevertheless, I respect the democratic decision of the people who voted and congratulate the successful new Mayor …namely the newly elected honorable mayor… “Moe Comuzzi”…
