I’d like to extend my sincere congratulations to my friend and colleague Kevin Ashe on his appointment as Durham Regional Chair. Kevin and I have had the privilege of serving together on Regional Council for more than a decade, and throughout that time I’ve seen firsthand his commitment to his residents and to our broader community. We’ve also had the opportunity to work together through initiatives like the Ajax Pickering Hospital Foundation’s annual Mayors’ Charity Golf Classic, raising significant funds and awareness for important causes close to home.
Kevin cares deeply about Durham Region, and I know he will bring that same commitment to his new role. I wish him all the best as Regional Chair and as he continues to serve the residents of Pickering and communities across Durham.
