Many have been touched by his service and leadership in community groups including:  12 years as Director and President of Lansdowne Children’s Centre, Vice-Chair of the Brantford Police Services Board, Director of the Brantford Brant Regional Chamber of Commerce, Governor of Wilfrid Laurier University and Co-Chair, along with wife Nancy, of the Brant United Way.

“To me, it’s about people, turning things around, and helping to make the community better for all of us. A lot has been accomplished, but there’s an incredible amount more that must be done. Today more than ever Brant needs and deserves a strong voice in Ottawa. Together, with the people of Brant, we can make that happen.”
Phil McColeman - Brant Conservatives Supporting families

Our Government’s track record reflects our commitment to keeping families strong.

We created the Universal Child Care Benefit which supports parents while providing choice in child-care, and have provided personal income tax relief for parents with children under 18 through the Child Tax Benefit. We have helped families save through the Tax Free Savings Account. We also introduced the Registered Disability Savings Plan to help families of children with disabilities.
In addition, we have provided tax credits for home buyers, public transit users, and parents with children in sports. We have proposed further tax credits for family caregivers, children’s art programs, energy efficient home renovations, and medical expenses claimed on behalf of a financially dependent relative.

This is just a small example of improvements we’re making every day. For more information on these and other issues important to the residents of Brant, follow this link: Click here to read about more local issues.
