After researching and speaking with residents door-to-door, I’ve identified three key challenges in our riding: Affordability, Social cohesion and engagement, and Economic challenges for businesses and farmers.

Candidat PPC pour Hastings—Lennox and Addington—Tyendinaga
Biographie
soumis par le candidat ou son équipe
I’m a father and a psychotherapist living in Coe Hill. Politics can be a real divisive issue, and people feel like their voices aren’t being heard or that their vote doesn’t matter. I’m committed to engaging with the people in my riding and making sure their concerns are heard.
I’m a father of three—two boys and a girl—and live with my family in Coe Hill, Ontario. For nearly eight years, I’ve worked as a psychotherapist in Ontario, drawing on my studies in science, philosophy, theology, and psychology. I’ve always been passionate about learning and debating politics, but I never imagined running for office until February 2025. While discussing politics with my wife, and being huge supporters of the People’s Party of Canada (PPC), yet our riding had no PPC candidate. I decided to step up, and within weeks, I was officially running. I’m drawn to the PPC’s platform because it addresses Canada’s core needs. As a psychotherapist, I also see how division, poor diplomacy, and a lack of civil discourse threaten our democracy—issues I want to tackle. Low voter turnout reflects widespread disillusionment; people feel unheard and see politics as corrupt or irrelevant. I aim to change that by fostering harmony, encouraging dialogue, and crafting policies that work for all, reducing political alienation and the “all-or-nothing” mindset.

The People’s Party of Canada has a great vision for Canada that prioritizes people. We aim to streamline government and give back agency to Canadians.
I am campaigning while working full time. I will not be accepting donations or do lawn signs, because I am focusing all my energy on engaging in events, forums, debates and with people. If you have any questions or would like to chat, please email me on (zaid.yusufani@teamppc.ca) and I will be happy to chat with you or answer your questions. If you would like to help, the best way is to gather some people for an event and I would be very happy to engage and talk. I would like to engage even with people who do not agree with PPC’s views, so I can learn and understand their concerns and hopefully serve and represent them if I am elected.
