Yvette Ashiri for Ward 1
Time and again Yvette has proven her dedication to helping people in our community. She is a community builder, ready to advocate for residents, and to ensure that diverse voices of people from all walks of life are heard at the table.
Yvette is the perfect candidate to represent Orléans East-Cumberland, including the Heart of Orléans, as she is as courageous as she is compassionate, and her capacity to bring people together for the greater good is unmatched.
Our ward is undergoing massive changes that will require a leader who is able to navigate uncertain times with dignity, care, collaboration and humanity. It is part of Yvette's vision that all people in our ward feel like they matter, are included, and belong, especially when it comes to Council decisions that have a direct impact on our daily lives such as transportation, safety, housing, local revitalisation, French-language services, and family support.
For Yvette, being a municipal councillor is more than a day job, it is an important mission, where she and her team will partner to improve the lives of the many people she is committed to serve.
Her leadership has been recognised through several prestigious awards.
Recognised for outstanding community leadership and advocacy.
Honoured among Ottawa's most accomplished women leaders.
Celebrated as one of Canada's most impactful Black women leaders.
Recognised for excellence in women's business and community leadership.
Three pillars of professional and community leadership.
Leadership development and community engagement at the national level. Building networks that connect young professionals to opportunity.
Serving francophone healthcare needs in our region. Understanding the daily reality of families navigating our medical system.
Protecting and promoting cultural identity at the federal level. Program delivery experience that translates into real action at City Hall.
No developer money. No empty promises. Just hard work.
My campaign is funded by people like you, $20, $50, $100 at a time. You will always know where I stand.
Transit that works. Housing people can afford. Services in both official languages. These are not luxuries, they are the foundation of a livable community.
I bring people together, newcomers, youth, seniors, and small businesses , to ensure every voice is heard and valued, and I work for the families of Orléans East‑Cumberland who deserve a strong voice at City Hall.
With 15,800+ francophones in Ward 1, our language is our strength. From Montfort to MIFO to our schools, I will fight for the services our community deserves.
Orléans is one of the most francophone wards in Ottawa. Our city council needs someone who can advocate in both languages, not just during campaigns, but at every committee meeting, every budget debate, every community consultation.
Real change starts with real people. Neighbours, volunteers, and supporters across Ward 1 are building something different, a campaign that listens, delivers, and puts community first. This is your movement. Step in.
