March 6, 2026 newsletter

The latest newsletter offers a snapshot of what has been happening in Ottawa–Vanier, with a focus on community support, local events and the issues affecting residents across the riding.

This edition highlights the importance of community-led support for youth at risk, as well as the people and organizations making a difference in Rideau-Rockcliffe and across the community. It also recognizes the loss of Perspectives Vanier, a valued local community newspaper that will be missed.

Readers will also find updates on local cultural and seasonal events, including the Festival Franco-Ontarien, Francophonie Month, the Vanier Sugar Festival, the International Film Festival of Ottawa, and participation in the Coldest Night of the Year walk.

At Queen’s Park, the newsletter touches on the connection between local concerns and provincial action, including advocacy for students in Ontario and opportunities for youth through the Pages Program.

This issue also includes practical resources for residents, such as information on 211 Ontario and a free tax clinic, both of which can help connect people to needed support.
