Deutschmann ran on a similar tone on issues, with an additional focus on increasing funding to police and emergency response services. d’Ailly ran on a progressive platform, with emphasis placed on the opioid crisis, inclusionary zoning, increasing social supports, reducing deaths due to automobiles, and increasing economic progressivity in the taxation and benefit structure of the Region’s finances. Aissa ran on construction of a new hospital, fiscal conservatism, increasing geographic access of rapid transit to less-served municipalities, road state of repair and increasing funding to police and other first respondersRedman won majorities in all seven cities and municipalities of Waterloo Region, including North Dumfries, where Deutschmann served as mayor.[6] Results were slow, with official results not announced until two days after the election, not due to a close ballot count, but due to province-wide technical issues with the electronic voting system that required some extensions to voting in certain areas in the Region.[7][8]Council[edit]Waterloo Regional Council includes the chair, the mayors of the seven constituent municipalities (see below) plus the following council races:CandidateVote%Cambridge (2 to be elected)Karl Kiefer (X)13,20932.50Helen G.
