In relation to my community, riding and city, the Commission's report proposes to:

• Remove sections of the Elizabeth Gardens neighbourhood to a new riding, Oakville Lakeshore;
• Remove sections of the Tyandaga and Brant Hills neighbourhoods to a new riding, Burlington — Milton West;
• Add sections of the Headon Forest and Millcroft neighbourhoods, which are currently part of the Oakville — North Burlington federal electoral riding.

I am concerned about the subsuming of Tyandaga and Brant Hills into a Milton riding and Elizabeth Gardens into an Oakville riding, as these neighbourhoods are not only connected to the Burlington community as a whole, but are also served by schools, hospitals, and other services located in the City of Burlington.

As a community, we all want to be part of an electoral riding that is representative of who we are, and where we are. I feel by bundling these with Oakville and Milton residents, their voice will get lost and their priorities will not be heard.

Thank you for considering my feedback. I have also cc'd my MP, Minister Karina Gould, who informed residents of these proposed changed.

Sincerely,

Lindsay Zalot
