Pages of <strong>Results</strong><br />

activist, working in popular<br />

education centres as of 2001. This<br />

Turcot’’. She fought against a<br />

highway expansion project. It is a<br />

cause that she continues to support<br />

<strong>Sophie</strong>-Thiebaut<br />

Through this report, I hope you will<br />

see how tirelessly I’ve worked in order<br />

to obtain concrete results <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Southwest</strong> over <strong>the</strong> last four years.<br />

This way, I hope to help fight off <strong>the</strong><br />

cynicism many of you might feel<br />

towards politicians in this time of<br />

uncertainty. – <strong>Sophie</strong> <strong>Thiébaut</strong><br />
