Dear Winnipeggers,
Can you imagine a Winnipeg where civic engagement isn’t just encouraged, it is the very foundation of how we govern? A city where every resident, from the north and south to the east and west, has a real voice in shaping their neighbourhood. Where decisions are made with transparency, and every person feels empowered to take action.
This is the Winnipeg I believe in. One built on respect for every citizen’s input, trust in our ability to solve problems together, and pride in what we can accomplish through collective effort.
Leadership isn’t just about making decisions. It’s about listening, engaging, and working alongside people to build a better future. When we prioritize meaningful civic engagement, we get stronger policies, more resilient services, and a city that reflects the needs and hopes of its people.
I believe in a Winnipeg where no one stands on the sidelines. Where citizens, businesses, and governments work together and not in isolation to tackle challenges, shape infrastructure, and build a fairer, more inclusive city. Where “collective action” is more than a phrase, it’s how we govern.
The City of Winnipeg’s official motto is “Unum Cum Virtute Multorum”, which translates to “One with the strength of many”. It’s more than a slogan. It is a call to build a city where everyone has access, everyone belongs, and everyone contributes.
This platform is your invitation: to learn, to engage, to participate, and to find community. Join me in shaping a Winnipeg that reflects the will, the wisdom, and the heart of its people. Together, we can restore trust in our institutions and take pride in the city we build. Together.
Respectfully,
Christopher Clacio
Candidate for Mayor of Winnipeg
