Haris is a parent, a business professional, and an active community volunteer. He believes representative government works best when it is transparent, responsive, and grounded in the real needs of residents.

What Ward 3 Needs Now

These are the issues residents raise at doorsteps, community meetings, and online. Haris is committed to tackling every one of them at the regional level.

🚌

Affordable Transit

Ward 3 residents deserve transit that is frequent, reliable, and affordable. Haris will advocate at Halton Region for expanded GO service, improved Milton Transit routes, and fare structures that don't leave families behind.

🏫

Capacity for Services

From emergency medical response to recreation facilities, regional services must scale with our growing population — not lag behind it.

🅿️

Short-Term Rental Parking for Residents

The rise of Airbnb and short-term rentals is displacing street parking from long-term residents. Haris will push for by-law reform to prioritize resident parking and enforce fair parking rules in affected neighbourhoods.

👴

Seniors & Long-Term Care

Halton Region is responsible for long-term care. Haris will fight to ensure our seniors receive the dignified, high-quality care they deserve.

🧒

Child Care & Early Years

Affordable, accessible child care is not a luxury — it's an economic necessity. Haris will push for real regional investment in early years programs.

🛡️

Community Safety — Traffic, Auto Theft & Speeding

Ward 3 deserves streets that are safe and neighbourhoods that are secure. Haris will push for traffic light synchronization on Main Street, Derry Road, and Louis St. Laurent Ave to reduce gridlock; speed humps near all schools and community centres to protect pedestrians; and empowering Halton Regional Police with the resources and technology needed to eliminate the rising tide of auto theft and vehicle break-ins across Milton.

🏟️

Sports Arena, Indoor Facilities & Cricket Field

Ward 3's diverse and growing population deserves world-class recreational infrastructure. Haris will champion a new sports arena, expanded indoor facilities, and a dedicated cricket field — reflecting the real sporting culture of our community.

Milton Ward 3 — A Community Worth Fighting For

Ward 3 is one of the fastest-growing communities in Canada. That growth brings opportunity — and real challenges. Haris Iqbal is committed to making sure growth works for the people who already live here, not just the developers who build here.
