As a long-time Milton Ward 3 resident, Haris understands our community's challenges firsthand — and is uniquely positioned to work directly with our Town Councillor to cut through delays and deliver faster, smarter solutions for the people who live here.
Haris Iqbal has called Milton home for over a decade. As a proud resident of Ward 3, he has seen firsthand the rapid growth our community faces — and the gaps in regional planning that affect everyday life.
With a background in community engagement and public advocacy, Haris understands that decisions made at Halton Region directly shape our roads, transit, water infrastructure, and social services. He's ready to bring Ward 3's voice to the regional table — loudly and clearly.
Haris is a parent, a business professional, and an active community volunteer. He believes representative government works best when it is transparent, responsive, and grounded in the real needs of residents.
A Ward 3 resident who lives these issues every day is better equipped to solve them — and by working hand-in-hand with our Town Councillor, we can stop the delays and start delivering real results.
Haris Iqbal's platform is rooted in the real, everyday experiences of Ward 3 residents — from transit and safety to sustainability, recreation, and economic opportunity. As a long-time community member, Haris brings the local knowledge and collaborative approach needed to work effectively with our Town Councillor and expedite solutions at the regional level.

Push for expanded, affordable transit so Ward 3 residents have real alternatives — from better GO service to improved local routes and synchronized traffic signals.
Ensure families of all incomes can afford to live in Milton — while protecting the quality of life in existing neighbourhoods through fair parking rules and smart planning.
Ward 3's growing, diverse community deserves world-class recreational infrastructure that reflects who we are — including sports arenas, indoor facilities, and a dedicated cricket field.
Empower Halton Regional Police with the resources and tools needed to tackle auto theft, break-ins, and speeding — making every street in Ward 3 safer for families.
A Regional Councillor who lives in Ward 3 understands the issues and can collaborate directly with our Town Councillor — moving faster on the things that matter most to residents.
These are the issues residents raise at doorsteps, community meetings, and online. Haris is committed to tackling every one of them at the regional level.
Ward 3 residents deserve transit that is frequent, reliable, and affordable. Haris will advocate at Halton Region for expanded GO service, improved Milton Transit routes, and fare structures that don't leave families behind.
From emergency medical response to recreation facilities, regional services must scale with our growing population — not lag behind it.
The rise of Airbnb and short-term rentals is displacing street parking from long-term residents. Haris will push for by-law reform to prioritize resident parking and enforce fair parking rules in affected neighbourhoods.
Halton Region is responsible for long-term care. Haris will fight to ensure our seniors receive the dignified, high-quality care they deserve.
Affordable, accessible child care is not a luxury — it's an economic necessity. Haris will push for real regional investment in early years programs.
Ward 3 deserves streets that are safe and neighbourhoods that are secure. Haris will push for traffic light synchronization on Main Street, Derry Road, and Louis St. Laurent Ave to reduce gridlock; speed humps near all schools and community centres to protect pedestrians; and empowering Halton Regional Police with the resources and technology needed to eliminate the rising tide of auto theft and vehicle break-ins across Milton.
Ward 3's diverse and growing population deserves world-class recreational infrastructure. Haris will champion a new sports arena, expanded indoor facilities, and a dedicated cricket field — reflecting the real sporting culture of our community.
Ward 3 is one of the fastest-growing communities in Canada. That growth brings opportunity — and real challenges. Haris Iqbal is committed to making sure growth works for the people who already live here, not just the developers who build here.
Stay connected as Haris meets residents, attends community events, and builds the coalition to win Ward 3.
