"From my experience organizing on questions of politics both on campus, in the community and across Canada, I realized that people cannot rely on the major parties to represent them or defend their interests. I am running as a youth candidate, to show the Canadian people that there is an alternative to the mainstream parties that everyone is so disillusioned with," Jamilé says.
