**************************************************************** The following is Jason Collins' campaign announcement, as received by SooToday.com:

Dear residents of Ward 6,

My name is Jason Collins and I am pleased to announce I am a candidate for councillor in ward 6.

My wife Krisanne and I are both excited to serve you and our community in this very special way.

We believe there is a need for change in Ward 6 and I'm ready for the job.

As a young business person here in the Sault, it is my desire to create a better environment for young families and young investors to live and do business.

I am the General Manager of Faith Online Ltd., a technology company currently developing website applications for churches and religious organizations internationally.

As a business owner in the Sault, I understand the value of investing and supporting initiatives that serve the best interests of our community and our region.

I believe we must do our part to retain and attract young and talented individuals in Northern Ontario.

I believe Sault Ste. Marie is an amazing place to live, start a family and own a business.

I believe our youth do have a bright future here and we must do our part to contribute to positive change.

I believe our economy will grow stronger and due diligence is more important now than ever before.

I believe if we work together we can accomplish everything we aim to achieve.

I believe integrity and hard work pay off.

I believe I am the best option to lead the next step for change.

If you choose to elect me for council, the top three items I intend to support are:

1. COUNCIL COOPERATION - Encourage more cooperation on council

2. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT - Partner with community organizations to implement key economic development opportunities

3. YOUTH STRATEGY - Work with youth organizations to identify what our municipal government can do to create a better future

Please vote Jason Collins for Councilor on November 10th

If I miss you at home while canvassing, please call me or my wife Krisanne at any time and we would be pleased to arrange a time to visit with you in person. 256-8738
