Why Sigmund Lee

Residents want to feel heard, supported, and properly represented.

Too often, people feel left out of decisions that directly affect their daily lives.

Whether it is development in their neighbourhood, traffic and safety concerns, or access to local services, residents want to be heard and taken seriously.

I believe they should be.


Why I’m Running

This is not about politics. It is about people.

Across Richmond Hill, I have heard the same concern: issues are raised, but not always addressed clearly or in a timely way.

I have spent time attending community meetings, speaking with residents, and listening to concerns about development, traffic, and neighbourhood issues.

These conversations have made one thing clear. People want representation that reflects what they are actually experiencing.

That is why I am running.

I will bring a consistent, accountable approach that focuses on real issues and real outcomes.


A Focus on Accountability

Listening matters, but it must lead to action.

Residents are facing rising costs, including projected property tax increases of 6 to 7 percent.

Too many decisions today lack oversight, lack clear value, and lack long term thinking.

Without stronger oversight and control, costs will continue to rise and residents will continue to pay the price.

Leadership means addressing difficult issues directly and making decisions that deliver real value.


Proven Community Commitment

Service has always been an important part of my life.

  • Six years with a community-based non profit focused on skills development and integration
  • Progressed to Chair, providing leadership and oversight
  • More than 200 lifetime blood donations over 40 years
  • Volunteer work supporting seniors with technology

I do not just talk about responsibility. I have demonstrated it.


The Kind of Representative You Can Expect

  • Shows up consistently
  • Listens carefully
  • Follows through on concerns
  • Communicates clearly and honestly

What I Stand For

Transparent communication
Clear, timely information so residents understand what is happening and why.

Responsible growth
Development that reflects infrastructure capacity and community needs.

Community focused decisions
Decisions based on real experiences, not just plans on paper.


A Practical Approach

I believe in being present and engaged on an ongoing basis.

  • Attending local meetings and events
  • Listening directly to residents
  • Raising concerns when issues are not addressed
  • Following up so residents are not left without answers

Real leadership is not about big promises. It is about steady, reliable action.


The Choice

This election is about accountability, responsibility, and leadership.

If you are looking for a representative who will listen, follow through, and make responsible decisions, I would be honoured to earn your support and your vote.

Richmond Hill deserves leadership that is accountable, practical, and focused on results.
