Stevenson is an urban planner with a masters in city design who says she is passionate about building an equitable city that serves all residents.
“I’m feeling great,” she said following the win. “It’s a bit surreal but really wonderful.”
Her priorities include housing affordability, climate action and supporting a diversified economy.
Caterina has represented Ward 7, just northeast of downtown, since 2007. This time around, he decided to run in O-day’min — in the downtown core.
In the 2017 election, Caterina held onto his seat in Ward 7 by just 155 votes.
