Time to be heard.

Jasmine Marshall is running to be your Ward 6 councillor in Kawartha Lakes.

Jasmine Marshall has called Omemee home for most of her life. She left for university, earned her degree, and came back to the community that gave her so much.

Today she works in real estate across the Kawarthas — spending her days understanding what home means to people here — what it costs, what it's worth, and what this community is willing to do to hold onto its small-town charm. She also volunteers with the Canadian Red Cross. Different work, same belief: that every family in this community deserves someone genuinely in their corner.

It's that love for Kawartha Lakes — and that belief in showing up for people — that led Jasmine to run for council.

She isn't running because she has a political career to build. She's running because the people who actually live here year-round — in Omemee, on the water, out on the concessions — deserve a councillor who  would be a strong, local voice for our community.

Priorities for Kawartha Lakes

Keeping Taxes Low


Last year's proprety taxes went up 6%. That's double the rate of inflation and hundreds of dollars more out of your family's pocket.

 

Jasmine will vote against any tax increase above the rate of inflation and will push for a line-by-line review of what Ward 6 actually receives for its share of the budget.

Reliable public transit

There is no public transit connecting our villages and hamlets to Lindsay or Peterborough. Seniors can't get to their appointments. Young people can't get to university or college without a car.

 

Jasmine will advocate for a public transportation options connecting Omemee to Lindsay and Peterborough — because your ability to get around shouldn't depend purely on whether you own a car.

Keeping our roads maintained & our streets safe

Speeding through our villages. Poorly maintained concession roads. Intersections residents have been flagging for years. These aren't just infrastructure problems — they're your street, your kids' school route, your daily drive.

 

Jasmine will fight for traffic calming in our villages and hamlets, targeted road safety improvements across Ward 6, and accountability when fixes keep getting deferred year after year.

These priorities are just the beginning.

Jasmine is going door to door across our community this summer — because the best policies come from listening first. Check back as the platform grows.
