Mariam Manaa: seeking the Liberal nomination for the Burlington seat in the Provincial legislature.

She is Mariam Manaa, running for the Ontario Liberal Party nomination to be the candidate in Burlington for the 2022 election under the leadership of Steven Del Duca.

According to her web site she is a “a long time Burlington resident and an active member of the community. In the past years, I have been working for MP Karina Gould in her constituency office. I have experience in policy advisory and stakeholder relations. I have also worked in Ottawa for MP Pam Damoff as a Parliamentary Intern in 2017. I am an active member of the Liberal Party.

“I currently serve as a board member for the Lions McInnes House for the Blind and Deaf and just completed a term on the board of the Halton Mosque. Community service has always been a priority for me.

“I finished my diploma in Urban Regional Planning and am currently continuing my studies. I am passionate about making our communities more livable.

I want to be a voice for all Burlington residents, especially minorities.

As a young woman, I hope to bring a positive perspective to the Ontario legislature and be a role model to young people on civic engagement.”

We hope to follow up what Mariam tells us about herself on her web site with an interview in the near future.

In the short comment she makes on a You Tube posting she comes across as a well spoken young woman who is focused and tied into the community.
